Reformed Dogmatics

Geerhardus Vos (1862-1949) was a Dutch American theologian. He studied at Calvin College and Princeton Seminary, and then pursued doctoral work in Semitics at the University of Berlin and the University of Strasbourg. After returning to teach at Calvin in 1888, he joined Princeton's faculty as the first chair of biblical theology in 1892. He held the chair until his retirement in 1932. During his time at Princeton, he taught some of the great Reformed minds of the twentieth century, including John Gresham Machen and Ned Bernard Stonehouse. Vos was an essential catalyst in establishing biblical theology as a discipline. His theological scholarship has influenced Cornelius Van Til, John Murray, Richard B. Gaffin Jr., and Herman Ridderbos.

Richard B. Gaffin Jr. is professor of biblical and systematic theology emeritus at Westminster Theological Seminary, where he began teaching in 1965. An ordained minister in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church, he has authored and edited a number of biblical and theological works, including Redemptive History and Biblical Interpretation: The Shorter Writings of Geerhardus Vos.
