Crown & Covenant anticipates that J.G. Vos' study on Romans will be published near the end of this year. After that, they plan to publish his work on Revelation.

J.G. Vos is the son of Geerhardus Vos. You can read J.G.'s bio here and Geerhardus' here.

J.G's commentary on the Larger Catechism is very good.

Thanks Andrew!!

Geerhardus and J.G. Vos were descended from French Huguenots. The excerpt below is taken from The Mosaic Origin of the Pentateuchal Codes (1886):

The author of the following treatise is descended from the French Huguenots. The original name of the family was Vossé, and his ancestors were among the refugees who emigrated to Holland after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes.

J.G. Vos' tract Ashamed of the Tents of Shem?: The Semitic Roots of Christian Worship is available online here.

J.G's commentary on the Larger Catechism is very good.

I'll second that remark - it is an extremely useful resource for teaching through the WLC.
