If you're a confessionally Reformed Christian or just interested in learning about the Reformed tradition, the Olive Tree Reformed Shorter Collection is a great place to start building your library. Many of these resources come straight from the Reformers and Puritans themselves or are written by modern scholars within the tradition.
A study Bible is a solid resource with which to begin understanding Scripture. The 1599 Geneva Bible notes were written by English reformers who had come to Geneva to learn from John Calvin; the result is a study Bible influenced heavily by Calvin and written, translated, and edited by other Reformers.
The Reformation Heritage KJV Study Bible, edited by noted Puritan scholar Dr. Joel Beeke, is also included. It contains notes that explain Scripture and makes the KJV much easier to read with explanations of some of the more archaic words or phrases. Last, but certainly not least, this study Bible includes the Apostolic, Nicene, and Athanasian creeds, as well as the Westminster Standards and the Three Forms of Unity.
Sometimes you need more than study notes, so we've also included the commentaries of John Calvin and Matthew Henry. These are well known and important works for understanding Reformed teaching on Scripture.
Finally, we've included a well known systematic theology by Charles Hodge. This isn't your typical Bible college theology book. Hodge's three-volume work delves into every doctrine it covers, addressing each from an exegetical, theological, historical, and philosophical perspective while not neglecting application to daily life.
Full list of bundled resources:
- The Reformation Heritage KJV Study Bible
- Calvin's Commentaries
- Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary
- Charles Hodge's Systematic Theology (3 Vols.)
If you’d like to start learning about Reformed theology, piety, and practice, this set is a great place to begin. If you're looking for more than what’s included here, we also have the aptly-named Reformed Larger Collection available with even more resources.
