G. Sujin Pak is Assistant Professor of the History of Christianity, Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary
"The patient and thoughtful manner in which [Pak] works through the
details of her research is thoroughly enjoyable. Her work is
trustworthy, calm, and evenhanded. She nicely brings to light the
particular concerns that animated the exegete Calvin, as she raises
some fascinating connections between his work and that of Jewish
exegetes such as David Kimhi. And she does so in a manner that is
neither forced nor argumentative. . .This, then, is an
insightful,
suggestive monograph, a careful, cogent, and exceptional piece of
research, which will be of marked interest to different scholarly
groups, both early modern and contemporary."--Theological
Studies
". . . A serious and important read. . . "--Christian Century
"This is a splendid monograph for which Sujin Pak should be
commended...The Judaizing Calvin is a careful, cogent, and
exceptional piece of research. The fact that the volume is able to
work through and discuss several different topics so adeptly is a
credit to Pak. It will be welcomed by, and of marked interest to, a
range of different scholarly groups, both early modern and
contemporary."--Sixteenth Century Journal
"Pak's history of exegesis methodology is perfectly suited for the
consideration and contextualization of Calvin's interpretation of
the messianic psalms... a sophisticated study with a number of
important insights." --Journal of Ecumenical Studies
