This article explores links between Scottish and Dutch Reformed theologians in the seventeenth century against the backdrop of a broader set of social connections between Scotland and the Netherlands at that time. The article asserts that this social history is crucial in explaining the speed with which seventeenth-century Scottish and Dutch Reformed Christians were able to develop strong bonds. The remainder of the article provides an overview of the key players in these Scottish-Dutch relations: John Forbes of Alford (c. 1565−1634), Willem Teellinck (1579−1629), John Forbes of Corse (1593−1648), Robert Baillie (1602−62), John Brown of Wamphray (1609−79), Robert MacWard (c. 1633−87), John Livingstone (1603−72), and Samuel Rutherford (c. 1600−61). This article serves as a call for more research in this significant and much-neglected area of study in historic Scottish-Dutch relations
