Product Information

A faithful examination of the role of John Calvin in the execution of Michael Servetus. The execution of Michael Servetus (1511-53) is one of the most debated events in the life of John Calvin (1509-1564). It has left an indelible stain on Calvin's reputation, and unfortunately, the retelling of the story is often dependent on the historian's relationship to Calvinism. Jonathan Moorhead here seeks to give a faithful narrative of the role of John Calvin in the execution of Michael Servetus. He examines the life of Servetus, with emphasis given to his education, publications, and relationship with John Calvin. Moorhead also gives attention to the role of Calvin in Servetus' arrests, trials, and execution. Understanding the extent of Calvin's power in Geneva at the time of the trial is critical to understanding the events, as is the context of executing heretics throughout history, and in particular, in the 16th Century. This book will challenge readers to think critically about the ethics of telling history, the standards of properly judging previous generations, and the benefits of this study for the building up of the Body of Christ. Servetus' Education and Publications Servetus' Arrest and Escape from Vienne The Authority of John Calvin Servtus' Arrest, Trial and Execution in Geneva Final Considerations Conclusion

Reviews
This well researched study demonstrates the situation in Geneva and the Protestant Swiss cantons, forever exonerating John Calvin as the principal complainant and persecutor in the case. The book is a wonderful addition to our collective knowledge of both the times and of Calvin. I highly recommend it., ... confronts all those who for centuries have turned Servetus into an innocent martyr and a victim of Calvin's cruel rule in Geneva. Here we have the whole story and the true one, and thus a different one. The book reads like a good movie, but there is no happy end and there are no winners, except for the historical truth., ... demonstrates that Calvin's primary concern was not his execution, but his conversion. I strongly recommend this book to anyone interested in finding out what exactly transpired, and the broader implications., ... an extremely helpful study of a significant event of the French Reformation and reveals how the history of such difficult and intricate events should be written., In convincing clarity Jonathan Moorhead takes us through all the facts of the Calvin vs Servetus case and comes to a precise and balanced conclusion. This conclusion finally does justice to the role John Calvin played in this indeed sad story. Moorhead's book confronts all those who for centuries have turned Servetus into an innocent martyr and a victim of Calvin's cruel rule in Geneva. Here we have the whole story and the true one, and thus a different one. The book reads like a good movie, but there is no happy end and there are no winners, except for the historical truth., There is an old saying, 'A text out of context is a pretext.' This is certainly validated in Moorhead's work, which focuses upon the infamous episode of the criminal actions of Geneva against Michael Servetus, the infamous sixteenth-century anti-trinitarian. This well researched study demonstrates the situation in Geneva and the Protestant Swiss cantons, forever exonerating John Calvin as the principal complainant and persecutor in the case. The book is a wonderful addition to our collective knowledge of both the times and of Calvin. I highly recommend it., John Calvin was the most influential theologian to the Reformation. His writings and ministry kindled the fire of biblical clarity and the structure of orthodoxy still accepted to this day. The one blight on Calvin's reputation that critics are quick to point out was his consent to the 1553 execution of Michael Servetus, a heretic who denied the Trinity, and therefore was tried and burned at the stake in Geneva.As with any historical event, Servetus' execution is riddled with complexities.Jonathan Moorhead sheds much-needed light on the events surrounding that infamous trial and execution. He demonstrates that Calvin's primary concern was not his execution, but his conversion. I strongly recommend this book to anyone interested in finding out what exactly transpired, and the broader implications.
