The commentary on the New Testament is considered the most important work by the theologian Victorin Strigel (1524-1569), who came from Kaufbeuren and was a close student of Melanchthon.
"His extensive literature consistently identifies him as a representative of the Melanchthonian school, which largely paved the way for (crypto)Calvinism in Germany in its doctrine of the Lord's Supper" (LThK IX, 1114).
"Of Strigel's numerous works, his commentaries on the New Testament and the Psalms as well as his dogmatic textbooks on Melanchthon's works were particularly valued. Strigel was one of the first to take the initiative for systematic historiography.
