The predominant points of the work itself concern the relationship between faith and works, using the verses concerning a tree and its fruit to make the point. This is a great work and should be a central source for any Christian theological debate. It also reflects the history of the church both by itself and in relation to the history of the spirit. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

Timothy J. Wengert skillfully provides a clear understanding of the historical context from which the treatise The Freedom of a Christian and his accompanying Letter to Pope Leo X arose. As controversy concerning his writings grew, Luther was instructed to write a reconciliation-minded letter to Pope Leo X (14751521). To this letter he appended a nonpolemical tract describing the heart of his beliefs, The Freedom of a Christian. Luthers Latin version added an introduction and a lengthy appendix not found in the German edition. The two editions arose out of the different audiences for them: the one addressed to theologians, clerics, and church leaders (for whom Latin was the common language), and one addressed to the German-speaking public, which included the nobility, townsfolk, many from the lesser clergy, and others who could read (or have Luthers writings read to them).This volume is excerpted from The Annotated Luther series, Volume 1. Each volume in the series contains new introductions, annotations, illustrations, and notes to help shed light on Luthers context and to interpret his writings for today. The translations of Luthers writings include updates of Luthers Works, American Edition, or new translations of Luthers German or Latin writings. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |

This book also shows, despite the rough language of some of his writings, that Luther had a high opinion of Pope Leo X and was not above reaching out to him in humility and sincerity. This book shows an entirely different side to Luther. This edition includes Luther’s “Letter to Pope Leo X”. I recommend reading this letter along with the treatise. It’s critical to understanding Luther and the history of the Reformation movement. ( )
