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.

Anm. a. Stellt man die Erbſünde nur als Ilecken und Makel hin (f. Antitheſe), ſo ſchmäht man das Ver⸗ dienſt Chriſti. Anm. b. Verboten iſt die böſe Luſt im 9. und 10. Gebot; b. unterwirft darumalle Menſchen 1l. dem Zorne Gottes. Erh. 2. 3: Kinder des Zorns von Natur. Pf. 90, 7: das macht dein Zorn. Pſ. 5, 5: Du biſt nicht ein Gott, dem gott— los Weſen gefällt. Röm. 8, 8: die aber fleiſchlich ſind, mögen Gott nicht gefallen. Sünde iſt Greuel Unflat, Kot vor Gott. Wie ſchrecklich Gottes Zorn Anm. a. Gott haßt nicht bloß die Sünde, ſondern auch den, der ſie tut. Röm. 8, 8. Anm. b. Auch wenn die Erbſünde ſich gar nicht äußert in wirklichen Sünden, ſo iſt der Menſch doch verflucht allein um der Erbſünde willen. Anm. c. Außerlich, in irdiſchen Dingen, freilich geht es dem natürlichen Menſchen meiſt wohl. Sie empfangen ihr Gutes in dieſem Leben: 2. der ewigen Verdammnis, dem zeit⸗ ö lichen und ewigen Tod. Röm. 5, 18: Durch Eines Sünde iſt die Verdammnis über alle Menſchen kommen. V. 12: der Tod durch alle Menſchen hindurchgedrungen. 6, 23: der Tod iſt der Sünde Sold. Joh. 3, 3: Es ſei denn, daß jemand geboren werde u. ſ. w. Konk. 576. § 9. 577, § 13. Anm. a. So iſt der Menſch verloren und verdammt. Du brauchſt nicht erſt zu fragen, ob du die Hölle ver⸗ dient haſt, das Urteil iſt ſchon geſprochen. Einen zum Tode verdammten Miſſetäter kann man zu irgend einer Zeit zum Richtplatz führen. Anm. b. Auch leibliche zeitliche Folgen hat die Erd⸗ fünde: Krankheit, Schmerzen, Dornen und Diſteln. Un⸗ ruhe Hiob 14, 1. Anm. c. Wir ſind ſchon geſtraft, daß wir die aner⸗ ſchaffene Gerechtigkeit verloren haben und gehen noch größerer Strafe entgegen. Anm. d. Die Vernunft aber macht hiergegen folgende Einwende: 1. Wie kann Gott um Eines Sünde willen alle Menſchen alſo ſtrafen? 2. Kann ein Kind, in Sklaverei geboren, etwas für ſeine Sklaverei? — Unfähigkeit macht keinen ſchuldlos. Röm. 8, 7. 8. Vermag es auch nicht — mögen Gott nicht gefallen. 3. Es iſt abſurd, daß Gott die Menſchen mit einem ſolchen Verderben beſtraft und ſie dann um dies Verderbens willen aufs neue ſtraft. Antith. Viele Sekten: Die Erbſünde ſei nicht eine ſolche Sünde, die des Todes und der Verdammmis ſchul⸗ dig mache. Konk. 84, § 38.

Note a. If one presents original sin merely as a stain or blemish (see Antithesis), one disparages the merit of Christ. Note b. Evil desire is forbidden in the Ninth and Tenth Commandments; b. therefore subjects all men 1. to the wrath of God. Eph. 2:3: children of wrath by nature. Ps. 90:7: by your anger we are consumed. Ps. 5:4: You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness. Rom. 8:8: they that are in the flesh cannot please God. Sin is an abomination, filth, dung before God. How terrible is God's wrath! Note a. God hates not only sin, but also the one who commits it. Rom. 8:8. Note b. Even if original sin never expresses itself in actual sins, man is still accursed for the sake of original sin alone. Note c. Outwardly, in earthly things, to be sure, it mostly goes well with natural man. They receive their good things in this life; 2. to eternal damnation, temporal and eternal death. Rom. 5:18: by the offense of one, judgment came upon all men to condemnation. V. 12: death passed through upon all men. 6:23: the wages of sin is death. John 3:3: except a man be born again, and so on. Konk. 576 § 9. 577 § 13. Note a. Thus man is lost and condemned. You need not first ask whether you have earned hell; the sentence has already been passed. A criminal condemned to death can be led to the place of execution at any time. Note b. Original sin also has bodily, temporal consequences: sickness, pain, thorns and thistles, unrest. Job 14:1. Note c. We are already punished in that we have lost the righteousness in which we were created, and we go to meet still greater punishment. Note d. But reason raises the following objections against this: 1. How can God punish all men in this way for one man's sin? 2. Can a child born into slavery help its being a slave? — Incapacity does not make anyone guiltless. Rom. 8:7, 8: it is not able — they cannot please God. 3. It is absurd that God should punish men with such a corruption and then punish them anew for the sake of that very corruption. Antithesis. Many sects: original sin is said not to be a sin that makes one guilty of death and damnation. Konk. 84 § 38.

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.
