description: Reformed theologians of the 16th and 17th centuries were led by their doctrine of predestination to ask whether Christ had died only for the 'elect'. This book traces the way they tackled the extent of the atonement. Following closely the debates of the time, it provides insights into the development of Reformed theology and argues that the difficulties experienced then point to a need for a new departure by those who stand in the Reformed tradition today.
