Collection › Eckhardt's Reallexikon › index › bibelaltestestament
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.

3. The Old Testament. a. comprises 39 books. Formerly the books of Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles each formed a single book; b. is written in Hebrew. Note a.

4. The Pentateuch. The 1st Book of Moses. Genesis. Origin. Coming-into-being. The 2nd Book of Moses. Exodus. Departure from Egypt. The 3rd Book of Moses. Leviticus. Regulations concerning Levitical worship. The 4th Book of Moses. Numbers. Numbering of the people. The 5th Book of Moses. Deuteronomy. Repetition of the Law. These books are ascribed to Moses in the New Testament by Christ and the apostles. Note. Antithesis. The moderns. a. The five books of Moses are said to be by Ezra. — Would the Samaritans, who accepted the five books of Moses as genuine, have accepted them only from Ezra, a Jew? b. The five books of Moses have various authors, a mixtum compositum. Delitzsch. The four principal documents from which the Pentateuch is supposed to have been compiled are: the Priestly Code (P), the writings of the Yahwist (J), the Elohist (E), and the Deuteronomist. Note a. In doing so they indeed fall into the greatest confusion and cannot agree among themselves as to which passages should be attributed to which source. — The critics cannot even, in our own day, separate a document written by two persons into its original component parts! Note b. In the five books of Moses there is found a completely unified plan. Objections: a. Gen. 12, 6: "At that time the Canaanites dwelt in the land," therefore this must have been written when they no longer dwelt in the land, after the conquest of Canaan, after Moses' death. — "At that time" can also mean: "already at that time." b. Cities are named by names which they received only after Moses' death. Gen. 14, 14 compared with Josh. 19, 47. Judges 18, 27—29. — These may have been two different cities, or the name of the city has (as often happened) been corrected over time by copyists. c. Historical statements from post-Mosaic times are supposed to occur in it. Gen. 36, 31, before the children of Israel had kings. — Since kings had been promised to the Israelites (Gen. 35, 11. 17, 6.16. Deut. 17, 14), one could speak of kings before their existence. d. Ex. 16, 35. They ate manna until they came to the land in which they were to dwell. Compared with Josh. 5, 12. — Nothing is said here that goes beyond Moses' lifetime. e. Ex. 30, 13. Shekel of the sanctuary. Therefore the sanctuary with its cultus must already have existed. — It can also mean: a full-weight shekel, as distinguished from the shekel of everyday commerce. f. Deut. 1, 1. These are the words which Moses spoke beyond the Jordan. Moses is said never to have come across the Jordan. — Moses also uses the expression "beyond" of the land east of the Jordan, Deut. 3, 20. 8. On the other hand, in Num. 32, 19 the same expression is used in Hebrew first of the west side, then of the east side of the Jordan. g. Deut. 34. The account of Moses' death and burial — was added by someone else. h. The change of the divine names Elohim and Jahve. In the creation account, Elohim, the Creator, occurs 35 times. In the second creation account (Gen. 2) the name Jahve, which expresses God's relationship to his people as the God of salvation, occurs almost throughout. — Moses may have made use of records from various patriarchs, just as in Luke 1, 3 mention is made of Luke's own researches. i. The repetition of the creation account and of the Law. — Gen. 1 describes creation itself; chapter 2, what became of heaven and earth after their creation. — In the second book of Moses, Moses instructs as lawgiver; in the fifth book of Moses, the prophet expounds the Law. k. The difference of style, language, religious views, favorite expressions. — By that standard one could deny any writing to any writer. One and the same person can write utterly different writings. Paul. Luther. — Linguistic differences are explained by the assumption that the five books of Moses need not have been written within one period of time. — Critics treat the Bible differently than they treat Cicero and Goethe. l. Passages which Moses could not have written about himself, e.g. Num. 12, 3: "Now the man Moses was very meek." — Luther translates: "very afflicted." m. Moses never speaks of himself in the first person, although he describes his own life and work. — Neither did Caesar in his "Gallic War," nor Xenophon in his "Anabasis," etc. n. Mockery of Bible criticism after Goethe's "Erlkönig." Schulb. 39, 58.

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.
