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.

Cörgefühl. Ehrgefühl iſt der Trieb, die eigenen Vorzüge in den Augen anderer zu wahren und nichts zu tun, wodurch ſeine Ehre vernichtet würde. Anm. a. Gott gegenüber hat das Ehrgefühl nach dem Sündenfall gar keine Berechtigung, da nichts Gutes an uns iſt. Anm. b. Das rechte Ehrgefühl kommt dann, wenn man erkennt, wie hoch man von Gott geehrt iſt, daß man durch den Glauben ein Herr und frei von der Knecht⸗ ſchaft der Sünde geworden iſt. Dann wird man ſeiner Chriſtenwürde nichts vergeben und nichts tun, was Gott ſchändet. — Ein Chriſt iſt mit einer Würde begabt, der keine auf Erden gleicht. Anm. c. Ehrgefühl 1. iſt etwas Gott Wohlgefälliges und gehört un⸗ ter die 4. Bitte; 2. ſoll man bei jedem Kind vorausſetzen und als Erziehungsmittel benutzen; 3. ſoll man bei niemand verletzen. Gott deckt auch bei uns Vieles zu, was uns in Verachtung bei Menſchen bringen könnte; 4. ſoll man pflegen. Dabei iſt jedoch große Weisheit und Vorſicht nötig. Die Pflege des Ehr⸗ gefühls bei den Kindern und der Jugend beſteht darin, daß man dasſelbe möglichſt in Ruhe läßt. Anm. d. Manchmal iſt „Ehrgefühl“ nichts als Ehr— geiz.

Sense of honor. Sense of honor is the impulse to preserve one's own merits in the eyes of others and to do nothing by which one's honor would be destroyed. Note a. Toward God, the sense of honor has, after the fall into sin, no justification at all, since there is nothing good in us. Note b. The right sense of honor comes when one recognizes how highly one is honored by God — that through faith one has become a lord and free from the bondage of sin. Then one will forfeit nothing of one's Christian dignity and do nothing that disgraces God. — A Christian is endowed with a dignity that nothing on earth equals. Note c. Sense of honor 1. is something pleasing to God and belongs under the Fourth Petition; 2. should be presupposed in every child and used as a means of upbringing; 3. should be injured in no one. God, too, covers over much in us that could bring us into contempt among men; 4. should be cultivated. Great wisdom and caution are needed here, however. The cultivation of the sense of honor in children and youth consists in leaving it as much as possible undisturbed. Note d. Sometimes "sense of honor" is nothing but ambition.

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.
