'Not so much a Reformer or theologian, more a preacher...there is no agonizing over hermeneutics, and comparatively little time is given to exegesis and exposition. Calvin simply reads the words off the page, providing clear direct commentary, and applies them.' [Paul Helm on Calvin's Sermons on the Acts of the Apostles, Chapters 1-7]
