Collection › Eckhardt's Reallexikon › index › bibeluebersetzungen
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.

16. Bibelüberſetzung. Die Überſetzung der heiligen Schrift in andere Sprachen a. iſt nicht inſpiriert. Baier. Pro. 98. N. e. Quen.; b. muß mit dem Urtext verglichen werden. Baier. Pro. 139. N. c.; c. iſt immer mit gewiſſen Schwierigkeiten verbunden, weil wir über einzelne Worte des hebräiſchen oder griechiſchen Textes ſelbſt nicht ganz im Klaren ſind, z. B Kezia, Pſ. 45, 9. (Schulb. 30, 384), oder weil es in vielen Sprachen an den nötigen Wörtern fehlt, z. B. in der hapuaſprache L. W. 43, 235—238. 45, 190. Schulb. 35, 188. 189. d. kann ſelbſt in ein und derſelben Sprache verſchieden ſein. Wie verſchieden könnte man z. B. das engliſche: „How do you do?“ im Deutſchen wiedergeben und alle Überſetzungen wären recht; e. gibt nicht immer den vollen Sinn des Grundtextes ieder. Manches iſt nach dem Grundtext klarer. Anm. a. Darum kann man oft aus Überſetzungen Dinge beweiſen und Schlüſſe ziehen, die nach dem Urtert nicht möglich ſind, z. B. Matth. 28, 19: (erſt) lehret alle Völker und (dann) taufet ſie. Grundtext: Machet zuu Jüngern, indem ihr ſie tauft. 2 Tim. 3, 16. Alle Schrift, die von Gott eingegeben iſt. Anm. b. Doch ſtimmen alle Überſetzungen, was den Sinn betrifft, überein, obſchon die Bibel ſeit dem zweiten Jahrhundert oft überſetzt worden iſt. Anm. c. Ehe man üÜberſetzungen hatte, bediente man ſich im Gottesdienſt Dolmetſcher, die den griechiſchen Text rörtlich überſetzen mußten.

16. Bible translation. The translation of Holy Scripture into other languages a. is not inspired. Baier. Pro. 98. N. e. Quen.; b. must be compared with the original text. Baier. Pro. 139. N. c.; c. is always attended by certain difficulties, because we ourselves are not entirely clear about individual words of the Hebrew or Greek text, e.g. Kezia, Ps. 45, 9 (Schulb. 30, 384), or because in many languages the necessary words are lacking, e.g. in the Papuan language, L. W. 43, 235—238. 45, 190. Schulb. 35, 188. 189. d. can even differ within one and the same language. How differently, for example, could one render the English "How do you do?" in German, and all the translations would be correct; e. does not always reproduce the full sense of the original text. Some things are clearer according to the original text. Note a. For this reason one can often prove things and draw conclusions from translations that are not possible according to the original text, e.g. Matt. 28, 19: "(first) teach all nations and (then) baptize them." Original text: "make disciples, in that you baptize them." 2 Tim. 3, 16: "All Scripture that is given by inspiration of God." Note b. Yet all translations agree as far as the sense is concerned, although the Bible has often been translated since the second century. Note c. Before there were translations, interpreters were used in worship, who had to translate the Greek text literally.

17. Die namhafteſten alten Überſetzungen ſind: a. Die Thargumim, eine Überſetzung des alten Teſtaments. b. Die Septuaginta, eine Überſetzung des alten Te— ſtaments aus dem Hebräiſchen in das Griechiſche, zur Zeit des Königs Ptolemäus Philadelphus 250 v. Chr. von 7/ Dolmetſchern verfaßt. Obwohl dieſelbe nicht immer wörtlich mit dem hebräiſchen Grundtert übereinſtimmt, ſo hat doch Chriſtus, indem er nach dieſer Überſetzung zi— tierte, dieſelbe als richtige Erklärung des Textes anerkannt. c. Die Itala, eine lateiniſche Überſetzung aus dem 2. Jahrhundert n. Chr. d. Die Vulgata, lateiniſch. Dem neuen Teſtament lag die Itala zu grunde, das alte hat Hieronymus überſetzt. 383. Anm. Die Vulgata 1. iſt ſehr fehlerhaft, z. B. 1 Moſ. 3. 15: ſie (Maria) wird dir den Kopf zertreten. 1 Moſ. 6, 5: auf das Böſe gerichtet;

17. The most notable ancient translations are: a. The Targumim, a translation of the Old Testament. b. The Septuagint, a translation of the Old Testament from Hebrew into Greek, made in the time of King Ptolemy Philadelphus, 250 B.C., by 72 translators. Although it does not always agree word-for-word with the Hebrew original text, Christ nevertheless, by quoting from this translation, acknowledged it as a correct rendering of the text. c. The Itala, a Latin translation from the 2nd century A.D. d. The Vulgate, Latin. The New Testament was based on the Itala; the Old Testament was translated by Jerome. 383. Note. The Vulgate 1. is very faulty, e.g. Gen. 3, 15: "she (Mary) shall bruise thy head." Gen. 6, 5: "bent toward evil";

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.
