Title page with Georg Lemberger woodcut border Luther Taf. 34 showing angels surrounding the entrance to the book.

Uncommon in its first printing. <p>After the Diet of Augsburg Charles V gave Protestants six months to renounce the Evangelical reforms and return to the Catholic church or else face armed persecution. During this period a confederation of Protestant states dubbed The Schmalkaldic League was formed with the intention of defending themselves from the Empire's repression. Luther joined Philip Melanchthon and several other theologians at Torgau in signing a declaration in defense of the creation of an armed Protestant league something he had adamantly refused to do on multiple prior occasions. The Warnunge An Seine lieben Deudschen was composed as a theopolitical justification of this new declaration of the right to armed resistance at Torgau. In it Luther walks a fine dialectical line with one of the clearest practical applications of his Two Kingdoms doctrine: as a minister of the Gospel he must counsel peace and could not press for war; but neither would he reprove those who took up arms to defend themselves against tyranny.

Title page lower margin cut. Else good. <br /> German religious reformer and founder of the Lutheranism movement Martin Luther grew increasingly hostile towards the Jews following their refusal to accept his religious reformations. <br /><br /> In the present work the most virulent of Luther's anti-Semitic attacks he subjects the Jews to a torrent of vile abuse. His practical suggestions range from forced labor to outright banishment: "First their synagogues should be set on fire and what ever does not burn up should be covered over with dirt so that no one may ever be ale to see a cinder or stone of it. Secondly their homes should likewise be broken down and destroyed.And this ought be done for the honour of God and of Christianity in order that God may see that we are Christians and that we have not wittingly tolerated or approved of such public lying cursing and blaspheming."<br /><br /> Due to Luther's vituperative anti-Jewish polemics the Lutheran church retained all the superstitious abhorrence of the Jews inherited from the medieval Catholic church.On Luther's conception of the Jews in this work see J. Trachtenberg The Devil and the Jews- The Medieval Conception of the Jew and its Relation to Modern Anti-Semitism 1983 p.183 et<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />

"Theological and doctrinal disputes were to persist for the rest of Luther's career on issues such as the Eucharist or Lord's Supper: Heiliges Adendmahl and baptism both within the evangelical movement involving figures such as the sacramentarian Karlstadt and the Swiss reformers Ulrich Zwingli 1484-1531 and Johannes Oecolampadius 1482-1531 and outside it with the Anabaptists. On both issues Luther resisted the accounts of these sacraments as having a mere symbolic value often arguing that this viewpoint comes from an urge to put reason above the authority of scripture.

Small worm-tract affecting last 20 leaves internally generally fine. 10 367 pp. <br/><br/><em>Rare first printing of Martin Luther's early letters from 1507 to 1522 spanning the years from the celebration of his first Mass to his removal to Wartburg Castle after the Diet of Worms. Among them is a notable letter Cardinal Albrecht Archbishop of Magdeberg and Mainz accompanying a copy of the 95 Theses composed on the very day October 31st 1517 when Luther affixed the Theses to the door of the church in Wittenberg and Luther's first letter to Erasmus penned on March 28th 1519. These letters provide a most interesting perspective into Martin Luther's personal and public reflections on crucial aspects of the early days of the Reformation. The collection encompasses correspondence with figures such as Emperor Charles V Pope Leo X King Henry VIII Georg Spalatin Philip Melanchthon Frederick Elector of Saxony Andreas Karlstadt Cardinal Tommaso de Vio Cajetan and many others. The present work was edited by Joannes Aurifaber 1519-1575 Luther’s private secretary who lived with Luther at the time of his death: “Joannes Vinariensis; 1519–1575 was born in the county of Mansfeldt in 1519. He studied at Wittenberg where he heard the lectures of Luther and afterwards became tutor to Count Mansfeldt. In the war of 1544–45 he accompanied the army as field-preacher and then lived with Luther as his famulus or private secretary being present at his death in 1546. In the following year he spent six months in prison with John Frederick elector of Saxony who had been captured by the emperor Charles V. He held for some years the office of court-preacher at Weimar but owing to theological disputes was compelled to resign this office in 1561. In 1566 he was appointed to the Lutheran church at Erfurt and there remained till his death in November 1575. Besides taking a share in the first collected or Jena edition of Luther’s works 1556 Aurifaber sought out and published at Eisleben in 1564–1565 several writings not included in that edition. He also published Luther’s Letters 1556 1565 and Table Talk 1566. This popular work which has given him most of his fame is unfortunately but a second or third hand compilation.†Encyclopedia Britannica.

A very rare pamphlet bound in a very lovely binding.<BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> Title within woodcut historiated border by Lucas Cranach the Elder.<BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> Luther sent this letter to his friend Lang in Erfurt in 1522 with the authority to have it printed if he thought it suitable. "As early as March 28 1522 in a letter to Johannes Lange Luther had expressed his intention to write a letter ad Erphordiensem ecclesiam when he found time . this time it was of value to him to address an entire congregation 'gathered in God' . That he in his complaint about those who give cause for rebellion and about the 'ambitious oddballs' who think they are not really preachers if they did not go beyond the simple simplicity of Christ's preaching also some of his Erfurter wanted to meet followers can be clearly read out. The admonition not to start anything in the dark but to leave everything to God in prayer is reminiscent of what is said in the eight sermons and 'of both forms of the sacrament'; here too we speak with moral seriousness about sparing the weak. Worship of the saints is not necessary for one who clings to Christ alone; on the other hand the weak should be spared so that they were gradually led to Christ" WA. Johann Rhau-Grenenberg unknown

The beautiful woodcut border shown in Johannes Luther plate 53 shows the fall and redemption: Adam and Eve at the tree of wisdom eating apples that the serpent offers them. What follows is the drastic expulsion from paradise by horned devils and the severe lords Moses and Aaron who reproachfully show the tablets of the law with the ten commandments. On the right then the crucifixion of Christ who takes away the sins again and below the risen one who defeats the devil with a large spear Moses' tablets of the law also break - an allusion to the time of the New Covenant "Sub gratia" which replaces the "tempus sub lege" the Old Testament covenant of man with God.<BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> Hans Weiss was the first printer in Berlin in 1540.

This psalm is a cornerstone in Christian theology as it is cited as proof of the plurality of the Godhead and Jesus' supremacy as king priest and Messiah. For this reason Psalm 110 is "the most frequently quoted or referenced psalm in the New Testament".3 Classical Jewish sources in contrast state that the subject of the psalm is either Abraham David or the Jewish Messiah. The printer Schirlentz had previously had printers license revoked because he had published the epigrams of Lemnius. Luther wanted to help Schirlentz and asked the elector personally for permission to print his psalm. Benzing 3322 </em> unknown
