demonstrate a significant shift that John Calvin introduces into the history of the exegesis of these eight Psalms” (7).
Contrary to those who would declare that Calvin in his reading of the Messianic Psalms is Judaizing, Calvin instead when he reads the Messianic Psalms, in most part, reads the Messianic Psalms as Davidic (not Judaizing, but Christian), examples of protestant piety, and divine providence, but in some/few cases he sees a literal prophecy of Christ kingship and kingdom.

People writing against Pak are trying to make the claim that confessions are nothing more than social plays. Nicea is nothing more than a social power play of Alexander’s guys trying to lorded over Arias and his guys. What Pak is trying to tell us is this is nonsense. Confessions are rooted in Biblical interpretations. And different confessions arise out of different communities reading the same texts in different ways. And that is why you have Wesley (which Pak is) and Calvin.
Note the difference between Calvin the humanist trained lawyer and Luther the Augustine monk--the shift in interpretation, however still holding to divine nature of the text.
The addition of humanism goes back to the renaissance with its arrogant and stupid cry of ad fonts.

Calvin and the Modern Critical exegete believe entirely different about the nature of the text. The Modern Critical exegete removes inspiration and they also differ in their interpretation. This change is KEY from Luther and Calvin to Calvin and the Modern Critical interpreter.

Arianism and the shift to historical critical method are the two most important theological shifts in the history of theology.
Arianism Reclassified the Personal word of God
Historical critical interpretation reclassified the literary form of the word of God
