"Covenant theology was a popular and controversial topic in early modern England.
In particular, the biblical old covenant with Moses generated tremendous theological
and political debates during the years of the English Civil Wars. And yet, the disciplinary
boundaries of historical theology and the history of political thought make it hard
to understand why early modern preachers and philosophers wrestled over this topic
with such vigour. This interdisciplinary historical theological study explains the
development of the covenant theology in the major works of Thomas Hobbes and his contemporaries,
including Bishop Robert Sanderson and the puritan and presbyterian circles of the
Westminster Assembly"
