An extraordinary publication by the Bremer Press of the "Martin Luther Bible". Translated by Luther directly from the Greek during his enforced sequestration in Wartburg Castle 1521-22 it was first published in 1545 and he continued to edit and refine his translation up to his death the following year. Translating directly from the Greek was a marked departure for the academics of the day who relied on the Latin Vulgate translation and used Latin for their studies with Greek seldom used or even taught. <br/><br/>Luther chose to translate from the Greek into the vernacular German language of the day making the scriptures accessible to everyday people and at the same time providing a vehicle for a more unified German language. The Bremer Press known for its interrelation of scholarship type design and book design has provided a version of the Luther Bible edited by Professor Carl von Kraus 1868-1952 Professor of German Philology at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. n. b. above info from Wiki and Ransom.<br/><br/>___DESCRIPTION: Set of five volumes complete; Volume I: Die Bucher Mose; Volume II: Das Ander Teil des Alten Testaments; Volume III: Das Dritte Teil des Alten Testaments; Volume IV: Die Propheten; and Volume V: Das Neue Testament. The text is continuous with no chapter or verse indications save in the bottom margin of each page; each book of text is delineated with its own sectional title page each opens with a four- or five-line initial capital letter designed by Anna Simons. This set is bound in ivory tinted boards with the single word "Biblia" in gilt on the front black leather spines double raised bands single gilt rule at the head and tail "Biblia" and the volume number in gilt; top edges gilt fore- and bottom edges rough-cut; endpapers of light tan laid paper; in the style of the Bremer Press as with the Doves Press the interior is free of illustration or ornamentation the focus is on the integrity of design of the type and the overall work.

"Luther's attitude toward the theology of Mary and toward the devotion which a Christian should have to the Mother of God is a small-scale representation of his entire religious accomplishment. During any discussion of Luther and the Blessed Virgin we must keep uppermost in our minds that there was a development in his ideas a change more or less drastic in each aspect of Marian theology. This development has its beginning in Catholicism; it passes through contradictions struggles and uncertainties and terminates in a new Marian viewpoint one which Luther decided was Christocentric biblical unexaggerated and edifying."p. 123.</p><p>Benzing 1746; VD16 L-6084</p> Melchior Ramminger, books

A fine copy with contemporary marginalia in red and black. Provenance: Alain Moirandat Switzerland.</p><p>Luther wrote his "The Magnificat Translated into German and Explained" in two parts the first composed before his appearance at the Diet of Worms and the second part while he was in hiding in the Wartburg in May and June 1521. Given that Luther's vision of the church and of Mary's nature and place within Christianity were evolving and were to evolve much further over time and the fact that Luther left the Diet a changed man living in changed circumstances it is no wonder that Luther's exposition of the Magnificat has been the subject of numerous conflicting interpretations.<br /><br />In Albert Steinhaeuser's view the work "is a classical discussion of the place that the Virgin Mary occupies in the Protestant system. Although Luther regards her in one place as sinless and invokes her aid and intercession at the beginning and close of his work these are isolated instances; the whole tenor of the exposition is evangelical and as far removed from the Mariolatry of Rome as from an ultra-protestant depreciation of the Mother of our Lord. 'She does not want you to come to her but through her to God.' There is something very human and altogether unlike the radiant Queen of Heaven in the Mary who 'goes about her household tasks milking the cows cooking the meals washing pots and kettles sweeping out the rooms.' It is Luther's contribution to the German Madonna and the Weimar editors well compare this and similar passages of the Magnificat with Albrecht Durer's Marienleben a series of quaint woodcuts portraying the life of the Virgin 1503-10."<br /><br />But Hartmann Grisar one of the leading Catholic writers on Luther writes "Luther's 'Exposition of the Magnificat' has frequently been taken as a proof of Luther's great piety. It indeed contains many good thoughts even apart from those relating to Mary but in numerous passages the author uses his pen for a highly prejudiced vindication of his new teachings on the state of grace. It should also be borne in mind that the printers started on the book just before the Diet of Worms and that it was intended to attract and secure the support of the future rulers of the Saxon Electorate. Luther was also engaged at that time on his exceedingly violent screed against Catharinus in which he attempts to reveal the Pope in his true character as Antichrist. When after the Diet of Worms he continued his work on the Magnificat he was certainly in no mood to compose a book of piety on Mary. The result was that the book became to all intents and purposes a controversial tract which cannot be quoted as a proof of his piety or serenity of mind during those struggles. Luther's Magnificat is as little a serious work of edification and piety as his exposition of certain of the Psalms which appeared almost simultaneously and was also directed " against the Pope and the doctrine of men.".</p><p>VD16 L-5453; Benzing Luther 855; Kuczynski 1431</p> Melchior Lotter, books
15243177Wittenberg:: Cranach and Döring 1524. FIRST EDITION. Quarto:. 21 x 15 cm. . 20 pp. A4 B2 C4 Bound in marbled boards. With an excellent woodcut title page by Lucas Cranach Luther 43c cut from a single block with putti cornucopiae architectural motifs and stags. A good copy light soiling a few stains. First edition of Luther’s response to the growing danger posed by the radical preacher Thomas Münzer who was ultimately executed the following year for leading the violent open revolt that came to be known as the Peasants’ War. In 1523 Thomas Münzer formerly the leader of the radical “Zwickau Prophets†began to radicalize the area of Allstedt where he was then pastor preaching that the ungodly were to be eliminated and the elect would establish a kingdom of Christ on earth and threatening the political rulers of the area with rebellion. In early 1524 as Münzer “grew bolder in his denunciation of the authorities and called for an elimination of the enemies of God†he divided the citizenry into military units in order to resist any outside interference in his activities. Münzer openly challenged and attacked Luther who was openly opposed to Münzer’ ministry of the elect as one of “our mad debauching pigs which are horrified by the windstorm the raging billows and by all the waters of wisdom.†In his “Letter to the Princes of Saxony Concerning the Rebellious Spirit†written in July 1524 in response to the recent violence and Münzer’s mystical theology Luther “appealed to the rulers to act before the incendiary suggestions of Münzer led to civil rebellion and open revoltâ€. Luther “distinguished two sides of Münzer’s behavior that of violence and that of precept. Only the subject of violence concerns the princes and to this subject he devotes almost his entire letter. Satan can here be seen at work in a new way and has shown us his hoofprint all too plainly –meaning Münzer says that one is not to leave it up to the Word but that it is time to resist the authorities with fists with the sacking of cloisters with the destruction of images. Luther demanded that the princes respond preventively by rigorous prohibitions. If the Allstedters wished to defend themselves and show their true colors let them do so in a public trial before whomever they choose. “Luther’s book is noteworthy not because he admonished them to suppress violence but much more because he drew boundaries for them to observe. They do not have to defend themselves against Münzer’s teaching: ‘Let them preach as confidently and as boldly as they are able and against whomever they wish…There must be sects and the Word of God must be under arms and fight…Let the spirits collide and fight it out. If meanwhile some are led astray let it be; such is war. Where there is battle and bloodshed some must fall and some are wounded. Whoever fights honorably will be crowned.’… “The princes became convinced that the disturbances might lead to rebellion and they summoned the leaders before them. The Allstedt council and Münzer were examined in Weimar at the beginning of August. To escape the impending verdict Münzer fled to Mühlhausen where later in the year he gained leadership over the city. He became a central figure in the Peasants’ Revolt and suffered death in May 1525 when the revolt was crushed.â€Bornkamm Luther in Mid-Career p. 152 ff.

15233175Erfurt:: Stürmer 1523. FOURTH PRINTING. Quarto:. 20 x 14.5 cm. 8 pp. A4 Modern boards with a stamped Luther rose. With a narrow woodcut title border. A very fresh clean copy with an intricate title page border. All printings are rare. Luther wrote this letter in August 1522 to Hans von Rechenberg a strong supporter of the Reformation and a man who distinguished himself in battle against the Turks. There is no evidence that Luther knew von Rechenberg personally but the question that Luther addresses in the letter whether a person who dies without faith may be saved seems to have been one of personal concern to the addressee. Luther’s reply is quite direct and to the point: whether men like it or not Luther says God saves no one without faith for to do so would be contrary to his word. Furthermore faith does not seek to penetrate why God does not save without faith. Luther cites four passages of scripture: Mark 16:16 where Jesus says “Whoever does not believe will be condemnedâ€; Hebrews 11:6 which says “Without faith it is impossible to please Godâ€; John 3:6 “Whoever is not born anew of the Spirit and water cannot see the kingdom of Godâ€; and John 5:18 “Whoever does not believe is already judged.†Luther writes: “Now if God were to save someone without faith he would be acting contrary to his own words and make himself out to be a liar. Yes he would be denying himself and that is impossible. For St. Paul says in 2 Timothy 2:13 “God cannot deny himself.†As impossible as it is for divine truth to lie it is just as impossible for him to save someone without faith.†He continues: “It would be a completely different question to ask whether God could grant faith to a few at the moment of their death or after death and thereby save them through faith. Who would doubt that he could do this But no one can prove that he does do this. For we only read that he has already raised the dead and given them faith. No matter what he does whether he grants faith or not it is impossible for anyone to be saved without faith. Otherwise all preaching and the Gospel and faith itself would be futile false and deceptive since the entire Gospel makes faith necessary.†Benzing 1270 Stürmer], unknown books

Quarter dark brown calf marbled boards gilt-stamped spine. Small inked shelf-number on verso title-page. Fine. Later edition of Schrockh’s "‘eminent’ biography of Luther" first published in 1773 Backus & Benedict p. 221. <br /><br /> "Schrockh. . .sympathized with Erasmus’ stand in the free-will controversy against Luther’s extreme determinism which says Schrockh the modern Protestant church does not feel committed to defend. . . .Schrockh stands by the narrower Lutheran definition of the Reformation. . . .In Planck and Schrockh despite their differences Protestantism and the Enlightenment remained in easy association" Mansfield. p. 46. <br /><br /> "The notion of Luther as the embodiment of the German Volksgeist for example could not but degenerate into that of simple patriotism or ‘Luther the German.’ On this view when Luther enjoined obedience to the secular authorities on the occasion of the peasants’ revolt he laid the groundwork for ‘respect for the authorities and for the inner peace of the state’—so says church historian Johann Matthias Schrockh 1733-1808. Indeed according to Schrockh in the intervening centuries all of Europe should have come to understand that the Protestant religion ‘is alone suited to the legitimate power and the true interests of the princes’ and that ‘all of this is without doubt Luther’s work’" Perkins pp. 69-70. <br /><br /> The frontispiece of Luther is fine example of German engraver Johann Benjamin Bruhl 1691-1763. <br /><br /> Schrockh "was an Austrian-German historian and literary scholar born in Vienna.

Signatures: inserted 2 leaves A-Y12 Z11 lacking final blank stub but inserted five leaves. Old German Type. Each page printed within an elaborate woodcut border of masks putti vessels birds animals and scrolling ornament. Seventeenth-century full vellum stamped in blind with central lozenge of crucifixion front cover and ornament back cover large remnants of leather ties; outer edges somewhat soiled and worn binding a bit rubbed otherwise an excellent survival for its prospective use. An early owner has added several leaves at the front and rear upon which are transcribed several additional psalms and biblical verses Psalm 34 Jeremiah 3 Jeremiah 30 John 1:1 Corinthians 1:10 John 1:2. Other markings @ 1606 in this same hand on the first inserted leaf at front. By this date in the inscriptions This psalm booklet Dises Psalmen Büchlein and a man Carlo from Strassburg may be making corrections at time of early press. A later date on this leaf is 1776 along with an unknown monogram or printers mark quite reminiscent of Theodosius Rihels fl. 1555-1608 printers mark but with different letters S & K. <br/><br/>During a critical period of time for the church Martin Luther saw the Psalms not only as the central model to Christian prayer but as a key biblical book that would spark a revival and lay the scriptural foundation for the Protestant movement. Luther said find in it the Psalter also yourself. as well as God himself and all creatures Luthers Works 35:257. The Psalms were an early focus of Luthers translations and teaching at the University of Wittenberg; there he first published an exposition of the seven penitential psalms in 1517. In a later work Luther classified the psalms by theme; they belonged to groups pertaining to prophecy instruction comfort prayer and thanksgiving. This pocket-sized psalm book hearkens to Luthers famous statement that the Psalms are the Bible in miniature. The psalms were a strategic book of the bible for a nascent Lutheran and the early owner of this book seemingly poured over it and added layers of extra verse and interpretation in the blank spaces of the book. Scarce edition. OCLC locates editions published by Rihel but this 1606 printing is not among those located. This copy unique for its early German annotations and biblical additions. We surmise they may be intrinsic to an early Lutheran community in Strasbourg or related to the Strasbourgian printers themselves. Theodosium Rihel hardcover books
