Few scholars have been as active in the public realm as Abraham Kuyper, offering an unparalleled application of Scripture to public life and work. Kuyper held that “at almost every point in the social question” – that is, the social and economic issues arising from rapid industrialization – “God’s Word provides the most specific directives.” Drawing from select texts in Abraham Kuyper Collected Works in Public Theology, this paper investigates the nature of human work and offers a synthesis of Kuyper’s biblical understanding of labor. The Bible’s notion of human work, for Kuyper, is (1) by nature good, (2) enabled through the gift of common grace, (3) one of the mediated ways God works in the world, (4) done willfully by humanity, (5) for the good of humanity and creation more broadly, and (6) ultimately for the glory of God. Each of these six aspects of Kuyper’s expositions of biblical labor will be explored to see the ways in which Kuyper understood the nature of work and offer areas of further inquiry for future scholarship.
