Synopsis

For hundreds of years, the Westminster Standards have been the benchmark for confessing Presbyterian churches the world over. These essays by Richard A. Muller and Rowland S. Ward take a fresh look at the Standards in their historical context. The first part of the book investigates the exegetical background to the Confession, and the second explores the issues, priorities, and debates behind the Directory for Public Worship. The resulting volume not only offers the careful reader a model of how to study historical theological documents but also rekindles interest in the Westminster Standards as part of the church's great creedal and confessional tradition.
