Commentary on the Heidelberg Catechism offers comfort from God's Word in our troubled times. For laypersons, pastors, students, and others.

This work examines key aspects of the development of the Heidelberg Catechism, including historical background, socio-political origins, purpose, authorship, sources, and theology. The book includes the first ever English translations of two major sources of the Heidelberg Catechism--Ursinus's Smaller and Larger Catechisms--and a bibliography of research on the document since 1900.

Students of the Reformed tradition and the Protestant Reformation will value this resource.
