Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By direction of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod of Pennsylvania, the following Explanation of Luther's Small Catechism is herewith submitted to the ministers, teachers, and congregations of our Church, for their friendly examination and use. It was deemed that to postpone the publication of a stereotype edition, and to send forth this little volume in its present provisional form, in order to afford an opportunity for the discovery of any imperfections, which may be pointed out by an actual use and trial of the book; to elicit the expression of wishes in regard to any changes that may be desired, to reach a definite conclusion in reference to its adaptation to the want it was intended to meet; and to render possible the introduction of such changes as may appear necessary.The object, steadily kept in view in its preparation, is sufficiently indicated by the title. It is the aim of this Explanation to render Luther's Small Catechism, peculiar and remarkable for its wealth of matter and condensed form, still more profitable for practical use. It was our constant endeavor not to lead the mind away from Luther's master-piece, but into a better comprehension and appreciation of it. But to enter more deeply into Luther's Catechism is, at the same time, to enter more deeply into the Holy Scriptures-the Word of God, the rock from which the stones, with which Luther built, were hewn. The careful selection of proof-texts, which are here presented as the Bible's testimony to our confession of faith, and which, together with the text of Luther's Catechism, should, as far as possible, be impressed upon the memory of the young during their school-years, and before they become members of the Catechetical Class, cannot fail to enhance the value of our little book. Those who, as teachers in our Church, have gained some experience in Catechetical instruction, will not fail to observe that the various wants of our Church, and the differences of age, knowledge, and capacity have not been lost sight of in the preparation of this hand-book, so that it may be used profitably by every conscientious minister, teacher, and head of a family, in the religious instruction of younger and older, more or less advanced pupils, both prior to and during the Catechetical instruction preparatory to Confirmation. It was not, however, our intention to relieve the teacher from that necessary preparation which he should always make before meeting his pupils.This is the proper place to make mention of the helps, which have been used by us with a grateful recognition of their merits, but also with a constant regard to their deficiencies and our own peculiar wants. In addition to a number of earlier and later labors of this kind, we would specially mention Caspari's admirable Explanation of the Catechism, which incorporates the best results of earlier labors in this department. Its vigorous, popular style, and original, independent treatment of the subject are inimitable, and its fulness of thought is in the highest degree instructive and suggestive. We have made a grateful use of it, at times even word for word, without, however, surrendering our independence, or forgetting our duty.And so may this little volume go forth into the world, finding many faithful readers and students, and charitable judges, and accomplish much good, through the blessing of God, and to his glory!In the name of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod of Pennsylvania and adjacent States.W. J. MANN.G. F. KROTEL.PHILADELPHIA, June 25, 1863.

Book excerpt: This annotated edition of ""Martin Luther's Small Catechism"" includes an extra appendix (in addition to the two already included in the original book) which provides an interesting overview of: Martin Luther's peasant roots, his education in pre-law, and how he was diverted from a law career to that of a monk-turned-professor and eventually, Protestant reformer,The role of the printing press in spreading the ""95 Theses"" quickly over Europe, catapulting Martin Luther to near-instant prominence in the religious dialogue of his day, The story of how Martin Luther colluded with a fishmonger to smuggle his future wife and her friends away from a convent, and Martin Luther's impact on the Protestant Reformation as well as modern religious thought.Martin Luther wrote the small catechism as an easy teaching tool for both individuals and families. Though penned close to five centuries ago, Luther's brief, clear summary of the essentials of Christian faith still ring true today.Topics covered include the Ten Commandments, the ""Creed"", the Lord's Prayer, and the sacraments of baptism and the altar. Ideas and instructions are also included for morning and evening devotions and giving thanks at mealtime. This little catechism, still widely used within the Lutheran Church, has gems of truth that many Christians will find to be both instructive and inspirational--regardless of denomination. Though few in words, it provides a wonderful explanation that has helped many to both learn the basics of Christian doctrine and apply them in a practical way to their lives.

A Christian, Profitable, and Necessary Preface and Faithful, Earnest Exhortation of Dr. Martin Luther to All Christians, but Especially to All Pastors and Preachers, that They Should Daily Exercise Themselves in the Catechism, which is a Short Summary and Epitome of the Entire Holy Scriptures, and that they May Always Teach the Same. A Christian, Profitable, and Necessary Preface and Faithful, Earnest Exhortation of Dr. Martin Luther to All Christians, but Especially to All Pastors and Preachers, that They Should Daily Exercise Themselves in the Catechism, which is a Short Summary and Epitome of the Entire Holy Scriptures, and that they May Always Teach the Same. We have no slight reasons for treating the Catechism so constantly [in Sermons] and for both desiring and beseeching others to teach it, since we see to our sorrow that many pastors and preachers are very negligent in this, and slight both their office and this teaching; some from great and high art [giving their mind, as they imagine, to much higher matters], but others from sheer laziness and care for their paunches, assuming no other relation to this business than if they were pastors and preachers for their bellies' sake, and had nothing to do but to [spend and] consume their emoluments as long as they live, as they have been accustomed to do under the Papacy.
