Luther’s Works, Volume 62 (Sermons on Exodus 1-20)

This volume contains a selection of Luther’s preaching on the first two books of the Bible roughly within the years 1523-25. Luther preached during these years in the context the controversies sparked by Andreas Bodenstein von Karlstadt, Thomas Münzer, and the Peasants’ War. The question of the day was how contemporary Christians ought to respond to Moses’ Law. Where his opponents claimed the laws still bound Christians in some areas like images in worship or ceremonial law, Luther aimed to clarify the role of the Law of Moses for Christians. He returnes frequently to theological themes from the early years of his public career and to autobiographical reflection, working to convey the significance of the conservative Reformation to a zealous new generation asking new questions about their relation to the Old Testament.

This volume includes original English translations of the following works by Luther:

  • Sermon and Introduction to Genesis (1523)
  • Dr. Martin Luther’s Exposition of Several Chapters of the Second Book of Moses [Exodus 1-18] (1524-25/1563)
  • Sermons on Exodus 19-20 (1525/1528)
  • Luther’s Preface to Volume 1 of Lectures on Genesis (1544)

About Martin Luther

Martin Luther (November 10, 1483–February 18, 1546) is remembered as “Doctor biblicus,” the Father of Protestantism, and the founder of Lutheranism. As an Augustinian Hermit and professor of theology in Wittenberg, Germany, Luther began by opposing the sale of indulgences, an action that thrust him into international fame. Eventually, he called for a thorough reformation of church teaching and practice based on Holy Scripture alone.
