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.

Outline. The particular circumstances of the birth. § 1. Born of Mary the Virgin. § 2. Semper virgine? § 3. The divine nature has taken on human nature. § 4. Christ did not take on the personal infirmities, not sin. § 5. God a man! A mystery, a wonder. § 6. Thereby God has revealed to us his whole being. § 7. The purpose of Christ's birth. § 8. The consequence and fruit of the birth. § 9. The effect of the birth on Christians. § 10. The child in the manger. § 11. The Christmas celebration. The Birth of Jesus Christ. 1. The particular circumstances of the birth: a. The time. Christ was born 1. about 4000 years after creation. Why so late? One might say: God wanted first to oppress his people, so that they would long all the more for a redeemer. But the best answer is probably: it simply pleased him so; 2. in the 750th year of Rome. Regarding our calendar, which is said to be four years behind the actual time: L. W. 48, 353-356. What is the birth-year of Christ? Our reckoning of time, Schulb. 10, 75-90; 3. on December 25 (?); 4. at night (an image of the hearts of men). But Christ is the light of the world. See Jesus. An important and blessed night. Kug. 4, 19, 50. Note. A description of conditions at that time, Ma. 18, 61. b. The place. 1. Bethlehem, a small town. -- Modern [critics] deny that Christ was born in Bethlehem, because no census, they say, was held at that time. -- Bethlehem, that is, "house of bread." Christ is the bread of life. See Jesus. Note. Why is Christ born in so small a town? So that he may the more readily be found. 2. The stable. Had Christ been born in a magnificent palace, one might think he was only for the great and noble. c. The parents. Mary, a poor daughter of David. Objection: she was not of David's line. See Christ 532, Note. d. The census. The census in the days of Herod. Theol. 3, 187-203. Objection: Luke is said to be in error -- the census is said to have taken place twelve years later. Min. N. T. 9-10. 1904, 72. Note. For the sake of the child the census is ordered. Cyrenius and the emperor must serve the child. e. The poverty and lowliness of the birth. Christ becomes a servant on earth. Mag. 5, 179-180. -- The

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.
