John Calvin/Commentary on Romans
John Calvin — Commentary on Romans
Welcome to the Reformed Texts edition of John Calvin's commentary on the Epistle to the Romans.
Our aim is to preserve the original Latin text, document editorial decisions, and develop a faithful, accessible modern English translation. The work will be open to scholarly review and improvement, with its revision history preserved.
Source Text and Transcription
The Latin transcription is being established from scanned pages of the historical edition. Each page can be compared directly with its source image.
Preliminary pages: Scan pages 001–012 belong to the book's preliminary matter rather than the running text of the commentary. These pages include blank or near-blank leaves, library and ownership matter, and the title page. For editorial consistency, the original scan numbering is retained. The present transcription begins at scan page 013, where Calvin's dedication to Simon Grynaeus begins.
