Summary

Paulus Voet (alias Paulus Voetius) is probably the least well known of three generations of the Voet family. His father was the famous reformed theologian Gijsbert Voet (alias Gisbertus Voetius, 1589–1676) and his son was Jan Voet (alias Johannes Voetius, 1647–1713), the famous exponent of Roman–Dutch law. Paulus Voet however was a formidable academic himself. This paper will throw light on the life and works of Paulus Voet from the perspective of his work as a Christian jurist during the seventeenth century in the Dutch Republic.
