Jordan talks with Andreas Beck about Gisbertus Voetius, his contributions, and why he matters. They cover topics like: Who were the most important theological and philosophical influences for him? Was he influenced by Thomas? By Scotus? By others? How did he receive them? What did Voetius think about freedom and contingency? Was he similar to others in his early modern period? Did he differ from the earlier Reformers?
