About this listen

In this fifth volume of a multi-year translation project by the Davenant Institute, we present key sections from Book V of Hooker’s "Laws," in which Hooker thoroughly yet succinctly lays out the Reformed yet catholic perspective on both Christology and the sacraments. Long regarded as both the theological and rhetorical high point of the "Laws," these chapters provide a survey of the church’s historic teaching on the person of Christ and our union with him, as well as an irenic defense of Reformed distinctives over against the Catholic, Lutheran, and anti-sacramental alternatives.

Yet this is no dry theological tract: Hooker’s descriptions of Christ, baptism, and especially the eucharist are among the most stirring passages penned during the English Reformation. Book V of the "Laws"is as valuable today as it was when first written for the edification of the church, the sharpening of the mind, and the enrichment of the soul.

Excellent

A beautiful articulation of the doctrine of Christ and the sacraments, avoiding both the Catholic and anti-sacramentalist extremes. Excellent expression of traditional Anglican theology, set very helpfully in modern English. I would highly recommend!
