Summary

We find Calvin’s Sermons on Ephesians a rich store of expository preaching that brings doctrine and devotion together. He unfolds the glory of God’s grace, then presses it into the life of the church.

These sermons are not a modern commentary format, but they are saturated with the text. We hear how Ephesians shapes worship, unity, holiness, and perseverance.

Why Should I Own This Commentary?

We should own this volume because it shows us what it looks like to preach Ephesians with weight and warmth. Calvin models careful explanation, but he also aims at the heart.

We also benefit from the way he turns theology into doxology. Union with Christ, adoption, and the church’s calling are treated as truths to adore, not merely to define.

It is a large book and it takes time. Yet it can feed our own souls and strengthen our preaching, especially when used alongside a contemporary commentary.

Closing Recommendation

We recommend this as a deeply strengthening Reformed resource for preaching Ephesians. It is ideal for pastors who want to learn from a master preacher in the Reformed tradition.
