and....
what does it mean to be a renaissance man

Answer 1

Renaisance or "rebirth" of learning and thought meant a return to the classical arts, an appreciation of Europe's classical heritage from ancient Greece and Rome. Revival of art in painting, sculpture, literature, architecture, and later on - music.
(It's difficult to just pick "3" - - depends on opinion, usually the opinion of your textbook or teacher.)

In Calvinism, the idea of predestination is that God already knows if you are among the chosen or not (for everlasting life in heaven) - - and God isn't telling. Far oversimplified.

A "Renaissance Man" studied and excelled at many things artistically: such as music, painting, sculpture, engineering, etc. Think of Leonardo DaVinci.
