Sinopsi

About This VolumeOn the Lawácontains two of GerhardâÇÖs theological commonplaces:áOn the Law of GodáandáOn the Ceremonial and Forensic Laws.On the Law of Godádelineates the various types of GodâÇÖs law, including the moral, ceremonial, and forensic laws. Gerhard dedicates the majority of this commonplace to the decalogue itself, investigating each commandment individually. He also argues for three uses of the Law, as curb, as mirror, and as guide.áOn the Ceremonial and Forensic Lawsáexplores the laws of Israel, especially those ceremonial laws pertaining to the holy times, places, and sacrifices of the temple. Gerhard takes the common stance that the forensic law was pertinent to the Jewish political state but abrogated by Christ, unlike the moral law which persists for all nations.About This SeriesTheáTheological Commonplacesáseries is the first-ever English translation of GerhardâÇÖs monumental Loci Theologici. Gerhard was the premier Lutheran theologian of the early seventeenth century. Combining his profound understanding of evangelical Lutheran theology with a broad interest in ethics and culture, he produced significant works on biblical, doctrinal, pastoral, and devotional theology. Gerhard interacts with the writings of the church fathers, Luther and his contemporaries, and the Catholic and Calvinist theologians of his day. His 17-volume Loci is regarded as the standard compendium of Lutheran orthodoxy, with topics ranging from the proper understanding and interpretation of Scripture to eschatology.Useful for research on Lutheran doctrine, GerhardâÇÖs accessible style makes this a must-have on the bookshelf of pastors and professional church workers.Each embossed hardback volume includesthe translation of GerhardâÇÖs Loci (originally published from 1610 to 1625)áâÇó a glossary of key theological, rhetorical, and philosophical termsáâÇó a name indexáâÇó a Scripture indexáâÇó a carefully researched works cited list that presents guidance for deciphering the numerous abbreviations of the other titles from which Gerhard quotes.
