Item Description...
This classic work by one of Europes most respected twentieth-century legal minds tackles law through the eyes of Martin Luther. Johannes Heckel first reveals the basic features of Luthers doctrine of law in its totality, drawing from an overwhelming amount of material from all genres of Luthers writing. Heckel then considers how Luther viewed law as the framework for the existence of a Christian in this world. He develops a picture of Luthers position on law by grounding it in Luthers theology, arguing that his concept of natural law has to be understood in terms of the divine and the secular. Finally, Heckel shows the practicality of Luthers position by focusing on the places in which a Christian interacts with legality in this world church, marriage and family, and politics. / When Johannes Heckels Lex Charitatis appeared more than half a century ago it brought new clarity to the much disputed issue of Luthers understanding of the law and of Gods governance of his created order. . . . Having Heckels work in English will assist scholars and students alike in putting Luthers insights to use in the context of twenty-first-century problems. / Robert Kolb, Concordia Seminary |
