The Ecclesiastical Offices in the Thought of Martin Bucer

This work comprises a study of Bucer’s thinking on ecclesiastical office. As well as contributing to general knowledge of the thoughts and views of the Strasbourg reformer, the book also contains material which should be of relevance for current discussion - theological and practical - on office and structure within the Church. The author has based his research on various rare editions found in libraries all over Europe. He also made use of unpublished sources from the archives in Strasbourg.
