Eckhardt's Homiletisches Reallexikon, 1907–1917

A cumulative subject index to seven Missouri Synod periodicals, compiled by E. (Ernest) Eckhardt (1868–1939) and printed at St. Louis between 1907 and 1917. Under each headword it sets numbered theses, and beside each thesis the places where the periodicals had treated it — by volume and page, running twenty years past the last of Der Lutheraner's own registers. Where the archive holds the volume a citation names, the citation below is a link to that page.

The alphabetical run is here in full, Abendmahl through Wunder, assembled from five scans: two archive.org items, a pair from Google Books that closes what had looked like a gap in the middle of the alphabet, and the archive.org tail. With it are the Beichtreden appendix, Eckhardt's own printed Register, and the separate 1913 treatise Die Schule, bound in with the later volumes and kept here under its own heading.

Headwords are spelled as Eckhardt set them, so the filter folds the differences that would otherwise hide them — Sklaverei finds Sclaverei, Konkordienformel finds Concordienformel. What you see listed is always the printed spelling.

The German below is machine transcription of the 1907–1917 print (tesseract, Fraktur model) and has not been proof-read against the page. Read it as a finding aid: the citations are what it is for, and a garbled word is a defect of our OCR, not of Eckhardt.

Einwand. Binden und Löſen heiße: Dinge verbieten oder erlauben. Katholiken. Antith. Papſttum. Der Schlüſſel dehnt ſich auch über das Fegfeuer aus und verwandelt ewige Pein in zeit⸗ liche.

6. Wer hat dieſe Gewalt? Der Inhaber dieſer Ge⸗ walt iſt Chriſtus. Matth. 9, 6: Des Menſchenſohn. Off. 1. 18. 3, 7: Ich habe die Schlüſſel. — Beweis für ſeine Gottheit. Anm. a. Wenn Chriſtus dieſe Gewalt ſeinen Jüngern gibt, ſo beweiſt das, daß er ſie urſprünglich hat. ö Anm. b. Chriſtus hat die Vergebung erworben. Ver⸗ gebung war die erſte und nächſte Frucht des Erlöſungs⸗ wertes. Anm. c. Chriſtus hat dieſe Gewalt auf Erden geübt. Der Gichtbrüchige. Sein Wehe über die Städte. Anm. d. Er hat ſie jetzt noch. Auch wenn er die Ge⸗ walt der Kirche gegeben, hat er ſie nicht weggegeben. Er vergibt durch Menſchen. ö Anm. e. Er verwaltet ſie jetzt nur noch mittel⸗ bar, nur durch Menſchen, nur durch ſein Wort. Anm. f. Die Kenotiker machen uns die Vergebung un⸗ gewiß. War Chriſtus auf Erden nicht im Beſitz der göttlichen Eigenſchaften, dann konnte er uns auch die Schlüſſelgewalt nicht geben.

6. Who has this power? The holder of this power is Christ. Matt. 9, 6: The Son of Man. Rev. 1, 18. 3, 7: I have the keys. - Proof of his deity. Note a. When Christ gives this power to his disciples, that proves that he originally has it. Note b. Christ has earned forgiveness. Forgiveness was the first and nearest fruit of the work of redemption. Note c. Christ exercised this power on earth. The man sick of the palsy. His woe upon the cities. Note d. He still has it now. Even though he gave the power to the church, he did not give it away. He forgives through human beings. Note e. He now administers it only mediately, only through human beings, only through his word. Note f. The kenoticists make forgiveness uncertain for us. If Christ on earth did not possess the divine attributes, then he could not have given us the power of the keys either.

7. Die Schlüſſel hat Chriſtus zur Verwaltung über⸗ geben a. nicht dem Petrus allein; denn 1. Chriſtus ſpricht: Was ihr (Gemeinde) bin⸗ det. Matth. 18, 18. Welchen ihr die Sünde er⸗ laſſet. Joh. 20, 23. Damit gibt er die Schlüſſel allen Chriſten, 2. Petrus redete, als er ſein Bekenntnis ablegte, Matth. 16, 16, nicht für ſich allein, ſondern im Namen aller Jünger, 3. Petrus kommt hier nicht in Betracht, weil er z. B. dem Herrn der liebſte geweſen wäre, ſondern als Gläubiger, der ein ſchönes Bekenntnis abgelegt.

7. Christ handed over the keys for administration a. not to Peter alone; for 1. Christ says: What you (the congregation) bind. Matt. 18, 18. Whosesoever sins you remit. John 20, 23. With this he gives the keys to all Christians, 2. Peter, when he made his confession, Matt. 16, 16, spoke not for himself alone, but in the name of all the disciples, 3. Peter is not under consideration here because he was, say, the one dearest to the Lord, but as a believer who had made a beautiful confession.

A citation shown like this names a volume the archive does not hold — most of Der Lutheraner and Lehre und Wehre past Jahrgang 10, and the five other series Eckhardt indexes, none of which are here. Those references are printed as Eckhardt set them rather than hidden: the reference is the useful thing even when we cannot serve the page. Page images of the Reallexikon itself are not served in this build; the scan note under each entry gives the item and image index in the archive.org copy.
