With great clarity and insight, James M. Estes illuminates Luther's
call to secular authorities to help with the reform of the church
in this important 1520 treatise. Starting with the Ninety-Five
Theses in 1517, Luther's appeals for reform had been addressed to
the ecclesiastical hierarchy, whose divinely imposed responsibility
for such things he took for granted. By the early months of 1520,
however, Luther had come to the conclusion that nothing could be
expected from Rome but intransigent opposition to reform of any
sort. It was only at this point that he began to write of the need
for secular rulers to intervene with measures that would clear the
way for ecclesiastical reform. Concerned that Christendom was going
to ruin, Luther argued that with such an emergency looming, anyone
who was able to do so should help in whatever way possible. 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 Luther's context and
to interpret his writings for today.
