Théodore Tronchin (theologian)

Théodore Tronchin (Latin: Tronchinus) (1582–1657) was a Genevan Calvinist theologian, controversialist and Hebraist.

He was born at Geneva on 17 April 1582, the son of Rémi Tronchin and Sara Morin.

He married Théodora Rocca, the adopted daughter of Théodore de Bèze.

[3] In 1618 he was sent with his colleague Giovanni Diodati to the Synod of Dort, as Genevan delegate, where he spoke in favour of the perseverance of the saints.

[1] Benédict Turrettini answered quickly in 1618, to the early parts of the book; and Coton published a rebuttal.
