In the present book we find a thoughful and reflective engagement with the original sources allowing the thought of Olevian to be seen in its own right as well as within the matrix of the other Reformers and even the catholic tradition. - Foreword. This book avoids making judgements about the correctness of Olevian's theology, choosing instead to consider his own history and times, in the hope that such a method will ultimately shed more light on why Olevian, with others like him, taught as he did, which should allow scholars and teachers to make clearer judgements about the nature and rise of Reformed theology. - Introduction.
