Philipp Melanchthons Abendmahlstheologie im Spiegel seiner Bibelauslegung 1520-1548

Zusatztext

Tobias Jammerthal suggests a new perspective on Philipp Melanchthon's theology of the Lord's Supper: Considering both his exegetical lectures and commentaries and his hitherto largely unknown sermons from the start of his career in Wittenberg until shortly after the Augsburg Interim, the author combines the aspects of the history of exegesis and piety with a careful examination of the respective theological and historical contexts of each source. The picture emerging is that of a theology of the Lord's Supper continuously focussing on the actual act of communion rather than the more theoretical question of the presence of Christ.
