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.

clear

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.

Abendmahl—Krankenkommunion

42. —

42. Oeffentlich und gemeinſchaftlich ſoll das Abendmahl verwaltet werden, weil a. Chriſtus und die Apoſtel es ſo gethan. b. Weil das Abendmahl ein öffentliches Bekenntnis iſt; des Herrn Tod verkündigen, 1. Cor. 11, eine Verkündigung aber nicht im Winkel zu geſchehen pflegt. Commu⸗· c. Weil es ein Band der Gemeinſchaft iſt. nion. 1. Cor. 10, 17: Ein Leib. Anm. a. Der Ort der Feier iſt darum die Kirche, der Verſammlungsgottesdienſt der Chriſten. Anm. b. Gerade in der Abendmahlsfeier findet der Hauptgottesdienſt ſeinen Gipfelpunkt. Anm. c. Wollte man das Abendmahl auch privatim in den Häuſern verwalten, ſo würden 1. Leicht Spaltungen entſtehen. 2. Bald möchte jedermann es ſo haben. Anm. d. Notfälle, wo Ausnahmen geſtattet ſind, ſind 1. Krankheit oder Gefangenſchaft, oder 2. Wenn jemand eine weite, gefährliche Reiſe an⸗ treten möchte und das Abendmahl vorher nicht mehr gefeiert wird.

42. The Lord's Supper should be administered publicly and in common, because a. Christ and the apostles did it so. b. Because the Lord's Supper is a public confession; to proclaim the Lord's death, 1 Cor. 11, and a proclamation is not usually made in a corner. c. Because it is a bond of fellowship. Communion. 1 Cor. 10:17: One body. Note a. The place of the celebration is therefore the church, the assembled worship service of Christians. Note b. It is precisely in the celebration of the Lord's Supper that the main service reaches its high point. Note c. If one wished to administer the Lord's Supper also privately in homes, 1. Divisions would easily arise. 2. Soon everyone would want to have it that way. Note d. Cases of necessity in which exceptions are permitted are 1. Illness or imprisonment, or 2. When someone is about to set out on a long, dangerous journey and the Lord's Supper will not be celebrated again beforehand.

44. Krankencommunion

44. Krankencommunion. Der Paſtor muß dem Kranken alle falſche Vorſtellungen in Betreff des Abendmahls nehmen: a. Daß der Kranke dasſelbe nicht anſieht als leibliche Arznei. b. Daß er nicht denkt: Nun müßte er ſterben oder nun käme er ſicher in den Himmel; ex opere operato. Anm. Zwar kann bei Krankencommunion die Abend— mahlsfeier unter Umſtänden etwas verkürzt werden, ſo daß z. B. die Vermahnung ausgelaſſen wird, nie aber das Gebet, und die Einſetzungsworte. Nutzen. 15. Falſche Vorſtellungen. Viele ſind der Meinung, daß das Abendmahl, die Sakramente, eine vom Wort ver⸗— ſchiedene, über die Wirkung des Wortes hinausgehende Wirkung haben. Münchmeyer, Delitzſch, Vilmar. Tho— maſius. Anm. a. Der Unterſchied zwiſchen der Wirkung des Wortes und der des Abendmahls ſoll ſein: Das Wort wirke pſychologiſch durch Verſtand und Willen auf das Herz. das Abendmahl auf eine draſtiſche Weiſe; das Wort ſei für die Seele; das Abendmahl für den Leib. Anm. b. Welches die beſonderen Wirkungen des Abend— mahls ſeien, darüber gehen die Meinungen auseinander. Wor Vorſtellungen über den Nutzen des Abendmahls a. Dasſelbe bewirke leibliche Vereinigung mit Chriſto, wodurch unſer Fleiſch und Blut veredelt werde.

44. Communion of the sick. The pastor must free the sick person of all false notions regarding the Lord's Supper: a. That the sick person does not regard it as physical medicine. b. That he does not think: Now he must die, or, now he is sure to go to heaven — ex opere operato. Note. To be sure, in communion of the sick the celebration may under certain circumstances be somewhat shortened, so that, for example, the exhortation is omitted, but never the prayer or the words of institution. The Benefit. 45. False notions. Many hold the opinion that the Lord's Supper, the sacraments, have an effect different from, and going beyond, the effect of the Word. Münchmeyer, Delitzsch, Vilmar, Thomasius. Note a. The difference between the effect of the Word and that of the Lord's Supper is said to be this: The Word works psychologically through understanding and will upon the heart, the Lord's Supper in a drastic way; the Word is for the soul, the Lord's Supper for the body. Note b. As to what the particular effects of the Lord's Supper are, opinions differ. Notions about the benefit of the Lord's Supper: a. That it brings about a bodily union with Christ, whereby our flesh and blood are ennobled.

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.
