The Oxford Handbook of Reformed Theology looks back to past resources that have informed Reformed theology and surveys present conversations among those engaged in Reformed theology today. First, the volume offers accounts of the major historical contexts of reformed theology, the various relationships (ancient and modern) which it maintains and from which it derives. Recent research has shown the intricate ties between the patristic and medieval heritage of
the church and the work of the reformed movement in the sixteenth century. The past century has also witnessed an explosion of reformed theology outside the Western world, prompting a need for attention not only to these global voices but also to the unique (and contingent) history of reformed theology in
the West (hence reflecting on its relationship to intellectual developments like scholastic method or the critical approaches of modern biblical studies). Second, the volume assesses some of the classic, representative texts of the reformed tradition, observing also their reception history. The reformed movement is not dominated by a single figure, but it does contain a host of paradigmatic texts that demonstrate the range and vitality of reformed thought on politics, piety, biblical
commentary, dogmatic reflection, and social engagement. Third, the volume turns to key doctrines and topics that continue to receive attention by reformed theologians today. Contributors who are themselves making cutting edge contributions to constructive theology today reflect on the state of the question and
offer their own proposals regarding a host of doctrinal topics and themes.

Anmeldelser
«... this handbook thus serves as a wonderful starting point for those interested in engagement with the broad Reformed traditions.»
Nathaniel Gray Sutanto, The Journal of Theological Studies
«Reformed theology receives excellent and extensive treatment in this significant handbook. The editors have chosen stellar scholars to produce thirty-seven chapters while Swain has written an introduction and Allen a conclusion. This is an outstanding reference book, comprehensive in coverage, accessible and interestingly organised.»
Donald K. McKim, Journal of Ecclesiastical History
«As any handbook should, OHRT provides a tantalizing platter of Reformed thought that will be especially helpful for those visitors to the tradition who would like to sample the standard fare (along with a few fringe delicacies) without having to commit to a particular entree.»
Kenny Silva, Trinity Journal
«The Oxford Handbook of Reformed Theology provides a concise and comprehensive overview of the current theological self-understanding of Reformed theology.»
Christian Danz, Revue d'Histoire Ecclésiastique
«This handbook helps the reader to locate Reformed theology in the wider history of Christianity, to understand Reformed faith through a catholic, historic, and text-based approach, and to envision Reformed theology's way forward. Thus, it is highly recommended.»
Ximian Xu, Journal of Reformed Theology
«OHRT provides a tantalizing platter of Reformed thought...»
Kenny Silva, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, Trinity Journal
«[The Handbook of Reformed Theology], edited by two leaders in the field, represents the best of historical, contemporary, and retrieval theologies related to the Reformed tradition. The range of scholars is outstanding, and the contexts, texts, and themes examined are well chosen and far reaching.»
Ryan M. McGraw, Puritan Reformed Journal
