Girolamo Zanchi, De Religione Christiana Fides—Confession Of Book Reviews / CHRC () – Girolamo Zanchi, De religione Christiana fides—Confession of Christian Reli- gion. Edited by luca baschera and christian moser [Studies in the History of Christian Traditions ]. vols., Brill, Leiden/Boston , x + pp. ISBN . ; US. The work under review presents, in two volumes, an edition of the text of the Confession written by Girolamo Zanchi at the request of the Convent of Frankfurt, held in September . Zanchi’s work was intimately linked with an important stage in the Eucharistic controversy. With the Book of Bergen, Lutheran theologians had tried to put an end to internal conflicts, while at the same time distinguishing their position vis-à-vis the European churches that subscribed to a Reformed confession. The latter felt the need of a clear presen- tation of their Reformed point of view. In this fine modern edition we have the result of Zanchi’s work. It was difficult enough for him to find the time and concentration for this project, given all the developments in the Palatinate. The editors have presented the fascinating history in an excellent introduction of pages, including a summary of Zanchi’s life in Italy, Strasburg, Chiavenna, Heidelberg, and Neustadt an der Haardt. They sketch the place of this Con- fession within the wider developments of the Eucharistic controversy, with ref- erences to the relevant sources. They also trace origins and background of the Confession and the specific difficulties that presented themselves. It was a fasci- nating story indeed. While Zanchi laboured on his Confession—hemadeslow progress—the diversity of international Reformed church life became mani- fest in not always very positive ways. The Convent of Frankfurt had asked him to write this Confession. Theologians in Zurich scrutinized his work, especially with respect to the formulations of the secret of the Eucharist. In Geneva, theologians also kept a close eye on the results. Beza and Bullinger did not come to any agreement as to how to formulate the secret of the Eucharist. These and other tensions had their repercussions on Zanchi’s work and its progress. When it was nearly finished, it became clear that in Geneva, theo- logians, together with French colleagues and with the approval of theologians in Zurich, had started a different project, which would result not in one Con- fession, to be supported by the whole of Reformed Europe, but a collection of diverse Reformed Confessions, arranged according to various dogmatic loci, and presented as a reflection of a unity underlying the diversity of the great number of Reformed churches: the Harmonia Confessionum.Zanchiheardof this project only when the Harmonia was almost finished, through a letter of Danaeus. Danaeus assured Zanchi that his work was appreciated, and he should not think that people did not value what he had done.

But in the edition which he published as a personal Confession,headdedsomecomments that clearly reflect his feelings. The text of Zanchi’s Confession is presented with great care in this modern edition, and with the explanatory notes this is a very valuable work. It provides insight in the theology of one of the greatest Reformed theologians of the period, who is often mentioned in one breath together with Ursinus, Beza, Calvin, Bullinger, and others, who paved the way from the Reformation to Dordt. In his Confession one can easily find the core of Zanchi’s theology, even when its special purpose has left its traces. Lutheran theologians tried to translate their position into politics. This gives a special colour to the reaction of the Reformed parties. Further research should enable us to see to what extent this contemporary context has defined the work. The doctrine of the Eucharist, Christology, predestination, and ecclesiology, have been accentuated in ways which, in a different time, might have been less obvious. The two volumes contain enough material to enable such further research. Apart from the Latin text, a contemporary English translation is presented, which may further facilitate a comparison and an answer to the question how certain concepts functioned at the time. Two brief remarks: . On p. , n. , the editors have been led by the annotation in the edition of the correspondence of Beza (Corr. de Th. De Bèze, T. XVIII, p. , n. ) at a letter by Ursinus to Beza, which made them conclude that the well-known Convent of Frankfurt took place not in Frankfurt, but in Neustadt. The relevant note does indeed suggest some questions, but there is no doubt where the Reformed meeting took place. D. Gerdes, in his Scrinium antiquarium (Groningen-Bremen, Tom. I, Pars , pp. –), copied much of the minutes which Datheen had made of this meeting, which he had received twenty years before from Thysius. These were the report of someone who had been present at the meeting and taken minutes, in Frankfurt. See also D. Gerdes, Scrinium antiquarium, Tom. VIII, Pars , pp. –: ‘Analecta quaedam De Conventu Reformatarum Ecclesiarum Francfortano. A. .’ Also following R. Hospinianus, in his Concordia Discors (Zurich , Geneva ), chapter XVI, there is no doubt that the Convent was indeed held in Frankfurt. Zanchi quoted in his Observationes in a marginal note a statement by Bucer (p. ), saying that the doctrine of salvation and its teaching are very difficult matters: “quia nimirum tradi debet scientia omnium ut divinissima, ita et difficillima, vivendi deum, cum sis homo.” Zanchi commented on this in.

But none- theless it is an important topic to tackle. As important as any part of such an endeavour is deciding on a “plan of attack” in getting into the topic. The movement covered by this label “Calvinism” has spread out its tentacles all over the place and in many different, sometimes in conflicting directions. The logical starting place is with the person whose name has been attached to the label, although I’m quite sure he would be most uncomfortable with most of the content bearing his name.2 After exploring the history of John Calvin, we will take a look at a few of the more influential interpreters of Calvin over the subsequent centuries into the present day. This will open the door to attempt to explain the ideology of Calvinism with some of the distinctive terms and concepts associated exclusively with it. I. The Persons From the digging into the history of Calvinism, I have discovered one clear fact: Calvinism is a religious thinking in the 1500s of Switzerland when he lived and movement that goes well beyond John Calvin, in some worked.

  • Girolamo Zanchi on Union with Christ and the Final Judgment
    Perichoresis Volume 18.1 (2020): 41–56 DOI: 10.2478/perc-2020-0003 GIROLAMO ZANCHI ON UNION WITH CHRIST AND THE FINAL JUDGMENT J.V. FESKO* Reformed Theological Seminary ABSTRACT. Union with Christ was a key doctrine for second-generation Reformed theologian Girolamo Zanchi. As a Thomist, Zanchi shared similar elements with Thomas Aquinas in his understanding of salvation as participatio, but his understanding of union with Christ differed with regard to the difference between infused and imputed righteousness. Unlike Aquinas’s doctrine of infused righteousness, Zanchi argued for imputed righteousness, which was both the foundation for one’s justification in this life as well as appearing before the divine bar at the final judgment. Zanchi’s doctrine of union with Christ has the utmost significance for personal eschatology and the judgment believers undergo at the great assize, insights that are worth retrieving for a clear understanding of the relationship between justification and the final judgement. KEYWORDS: Union with Christ, participation (participatio), insitio Christi, imputed righteous- ness, infused righteousness, Aquinas, Zanchi, final judgment Introduction The doctrine of participatio or union with Christ has been a prominent theme in historical and doctrinal literature. Some have claimed that union with Christ is a panacea for healing the doctrinal rift between the Western and Eastern churches (Braaten and Jenson 1998: vii-ix). Others have claimed that union is the great insight of John Calvin (1509-64) and that later Reformed theologians ignored or abandoned his doctrine (Partee 2008: 13-35). Calvin’s successors traded their doctrinal inheritance for a bowl of scholastic lentils when they supposedly moved away from union and embraced the ordo salutis (Evans 2008: 40, 264-67).

Allison Park, PA: Pickwick Publications, 1986: 183-195. © 1986 Wipf and Stock Publisher. Used with permission. Immortality and Method in Ursinus's Theological Ambiance John Patrick Donnelly, S. J. The main theological and religious positions of mainstream Pro­ testantism in Europe and America were staked out by the first genera­ tion of Martin Luther and the second generation of John Calvin. Most reformation research has rightly concentrated on the first two genera­ tions, but recently American scholarship has started to examine the role of the third generation represented by Zacharias Ursinus and his con­ temporaries, the Shapers of Religious Traditions. This conference brings together many of the scholars who have contributed to that thrust-I was tempted to say younger scholars, but as I look around I n()te that most of us have acquired gray hair in the decade since we started publishing in this area. It has always seemed to me that a major contribution of the third generation of reformers was their shift of theological method away from the strongly biblical theologies of Luther and Calvin toward the neoscholasticism of the Age of Protestant Orthodoxy, a period which stretched from the late sixteenth century well into the eighteenth cen­ tury, and in places remained important even in the nineteenth century, for instance the Calvinism of the American Princeton School.

  • Peter Martyr Vermigli and Thomas Aquinas on Predestination
    CONFLUENCE AND INFLUENCE: PETER MARTYR VERMIGLI AND THOMAS AQUINAS ON PREDESTINATION Frank A. James III Introduction In his Paradiso, Dante Alighieri describes predestination as a mystery whose “root lies hidden from the intellect.”1 By its very inscrutability, the idea of predestination has fascinated theologians from Augustine to Pannenberg.2 It also has been a central dogma, as it were, for Richard A. Muller’s ground-breaking research. When he published his doctoral dis- sertation over twenty-five years ago, Christ and the Decree, few could have anticipated that his approach to the development of post-Reformational theology would have lasting value. His was after all a rather obscure area of research, which hitherto had been largely the domain of dead-white- European-males with hard to pronounce names. From the outset of his career, Muller recognized the historiographical significance of Peter Martyr Vermigli and the doctrine of predestination. In Christ and the Decree, Muller made what many considered a rather star- tling academic judgment: We must divide the laurels between Calvin and Vermigli in judging the influence of their respective doctrines of predestination. Whereas Calvin’s basic structure and definition, which designates election and reprobation as almost coordinate halves of the decree, had more impact…[it was Vermigli’s conception of predestination that] would eventually be enunciated as the confessional norm of Reformed theology.3 1 Divine Comedy, Paradisio, Canto XX: “O Predestination! How remote and dim, Thy root lies hidden from the intellect which only glimpses the First Cause Supreme! And you, ye mortals, keep your judgment checked, since we, who see God, have not therefore skill To know yet all the number of the elect, And such defective sight is sweet for us, Because our good is refined by this good, That which God wills we also will.” 2 Wolfhart Pannenberg’s dissertation: Die prädestinationslehre des Duns Skotus in Zusammenhang der scholastischen Lehrntwicklung (Göttingen: V&R, 1954).

  • Jerome Zanchi, the Application of Theology, PATRICK J
    Jerome Zanchi, the Application of Theology, PATRICK J. and the Rise of the English O’BANION Practical Divinity Tradition* Cet article s’inscrit dans le débat récemment relancé sur la relation entre les théologiens scolastiques de la Réforme et les premiers réformateurs, mais propose également de l’amener dans une nouvelle direction. On y ana- lyse d’abord la doctrine de Dieu, telle que développée par Jerome Zanchi (1516–1590), en mettant en relief comment il passe de conclusions de théo- logie systématique à des implications de théologie pratique, en particulier, à travers son usage de la convention dite de l’usus doctrinae. L’article cherche ensuite à estimer l’impact de cette convention en dehors des milieux érudits en explorant la relation entre le discours de Zanchi et la tradition anglaise pratique de la divinité. On y met donc en lumière comment les pasteurs et les théologiens populaires ont emprunté à Zanchi dans le cadre de leur charge d’âmes et de réforme de la nation anglaise. wo early modern likenesses of the Italian exile and Reformed theolo- Tgian Jerome Zanchi (1516–1590) exist.1 The first, the work of Hendrik Hondius, was published in his Icones virorum nostra patrumque memoria illustrium (1599). The second, probably engraved by Theodore de Bry, was included in Jean-Jacques Boissard’s Bibliotheca chalcographica (1669). Beneath each engraving, the artists added a few lines of Latin verse celebrat- ing Zanchi’s life. Although there are differences between the verses in the two works, both agree that Zanchi was nulli pietate secundus: second to none in piety.

  • Zanchi Nel Quinto Centenario Della Nascita
    «Sono venuto alla luce nel 1516, l’anno prima che tornasse a splendere la luce del Vangelo» Commemorazione del Quinto Centenario della nascita del teologo riformato bergamasco Girolamo Zanchi (1516-1590) Bergamo, Tempio della Chiesa Valdese, 2 febbraio 2016 Occorre incorporare la teologia nella storia e, per una strada contraria, la storia nella teologia, smettere di vedere in questa solo una collezione di concetti e di ragionamenti, riavvicinandola invece a cento altre manifestazioni del pensiero e dei sentimenti contemporanei…in una parola cercare di afferrare le realtà psicologiche che si nascondono sotto le formule scolastiche (LUCIEN FEBVRE , Studi su Riforma e Rinascimento , Einaudi 1966, p. 59) La commemorazione del Quinto Centenario della nascita di Girolamo Zanchi, teologo di dimensione europea, si svolse, cinque anni fa, con la lettura di brani autobiografici che trassi dalla sua corrispondenza, lettura alternata con musiche di Johann Sebastian Bach, eseguite all’organo dal maestro Fabio Piazzalunga. Si preferì, in quell’occasione, non parlare tanto di Zanchi teologo quanto piuttosto dell’uomo; anche se vita e teologia furono in lui così intimamente unite che l’individualità del soggetto si fuse sempre più saldamente con la sua opera teologica. Zanchi fu assai parco nel parlare di sé. Solo una lettera può dirsi integralmente autobiografica, quella del 2 aprile 1565 al parente Lelio Zanchi di Verona; e, in misura minore, la lettera dedicatoria a Filippo I d’Assia dell’opera Miscellanea Theologica del 1566. Le altre lettere, tutte di stretto argomento teologico, ecclesiale, pastorale, contengono solo sporadici passi autobiografici. Scelsi quei passi che mi parvero meglio adeguati ad abbozzare per accenni l’immagine della sua personalità, gli affetti famigliari, le amicizie, i sentimenti, lo stile, i gusti.

  • Reformed Confessions and Scholasticism. Diversity and Harmony
    Perichoresis Volume 14. Issue 3 (2016): 17-43 DOI: 10.1515/perc-2016-0014 REFORMED CONFESSIONS AND SCHOLASTICISM. DIVERSITY AND HARMONY ANDREAS J. BECK * Evangelical Theological Faculty, Leuven ABSTRACT. This paper discusses the complex relationship of Reformed confessions and Re- formed orthodox scholasticism. It is argued that Reformed confessions differ in genre and method from Reformed scholastic works, although such differences between confessional and scholastic language should not be mistaken for representing different doctrines that are no longer in harmony with each other. What is more, it is precisely the scholastic background and training of the authors of such confessions that enabled them to place their confessional writings in the broader catholic tradition of the Christian church and to include patristic and medieval theological insights. Thus proper attention to their scholastic background helps to see that at least in some confessions the doctrine of predestination, for instance, is not as ‘rigid’ as one might think at first sight. In order to demonstrate that the doctrine of the Reformed confessions was much in line with the scholastic theology of Reformed orthodoxy, this paper discusses, after having explained the terms ‘Reformed orthodoxy’ and ‘sch olasticism ’, the early Reformed scho- lastic theologians Beza, Zanchi, and Ursinus, who also have written confessional texts. The paper also includes a more detailed discussion of the Belgic Confession and the scholastic background of the Canons of Dordt and the Westminster Confession , thereby focusing on the doctrines of God, providence, and predestination. KEY WORDS: Reformed confessions, scholasticism, Belgic Confession , Synod of Dordt, predesti- nation Introduction Around 1565, we observe not only the rise of most national Reformed con- fessions, but also the beginning of Reformed orthodoxy and scholasticism.
