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.

heute freiwillig den Zehnten geben. Luth. 19, 44. 183. 18⁴ Antith. Manche meinen, das Geſetz vom Zehnten ſei auch für uns verbindlich. Frage 1. Darf man auch etwas zurücklegen für ſein Alter? — Ja. Frage 2. Darf man Reichtum auf Kinder vererben? — Ja. 1 Moſ. 25, 5. 6. Frage 3. Darf man ſich auch Geld für Vergnügungen erlauben? — Ja, ſie dienen zur Erholung des Leibes; e. einfältig. Röm. 12, 8. ohne Nebengedanken, ohne Rückſicht auf Vergeltung. — Das iſt Unbarmher⸗ zigkeit, wenn man Wohltaten erweiſt und dafür etwas wieder erwartet; f. zweckmäßig, daß man nicht für untergeord— nete Zwecke ſeine Kräfte erſchöpft und dann für die Hauptſache nichts übrig hat; f. regelmäßig. 1 Kor. 16, 2: auf je der Sab⸗ bater einen. Denn: 1. Gott iſt ein Gott der Ordnung, darum iſt es ſchön, wenn man auch im Geben Ordnung hält, 2. das Geben ſoll nicht von unſerer Laune und Zufall abhängen, 3. die Arbeit im Reiche Gottes iſt nicht mit einem Male abgemacht, ſondern geht immerfort, 4. es iſt leichter, fünf Cents in der Woche zu geben als auf einmal eine größere Summe. Man ſpürt es am wenigſten. Anm. Soll man größere Summen auf einmal geben, ſo wehrt ſich der alte Adam und es wird oft nichts draus. Durch ſyſtematiſches Geben läßt ſich das Fleiſch am leichteſten unterdrücken. 5. Durch regelmäßiges, ſyſtematiſches Geben wird unglaubliches geleiſtet. — Die regelmäßigen, klei⸗ nen Tropfen füllen die Flüſſe und Bäche. — Was kann z. B. ein Frauenverein oder Jünglingsverein durch regelmäßige, monatliche Beiträge ausrichten! — Geſchichte. Luth. 60, 138. Anm. a. Darum iſt es gut, 1. daß Gemeinden regelmäßige Kollekten von vornherein feſtſetzen, 2. daß Geſchäftsleute gewiſſe Prozente ihres Ein⸗ kommens abgeben. Anm. b. Dadurch würde mancher Aufruf im „Luthe⸗ raner“ unnötig. Anm. c. „Auf je der Sabbater einen“ 1 Kor. 16. 2. iſt kein Gebot, wohl aber ein Rat, der nicht zu verach⸗ ten iſt:

...give the tenth voluntarily today. Luth. 19, 44, 183. Answer. Some think that the law of the tenth is binding on us too. Question 1. May one also lay something by for one's old age? — Yes. Question 2. May one bequeath wealth to one's children? — Yes. Gen. 25:5-6. Question 3. May one also allow oneself money for amusements? — Yes, they serve for the recreation of the body; e. simply. Rom. 12:8: without ulterior motives, without regard to repayment. — It is unmerciful to do kindnesses and then expect something back for them; f. purposefully, so that one does not exhaust one's resources on subordinate purposes and then has nothing left over for the main thing; g. regularly. 1 Cor. 16:2: upon the first day of the week. For: 1. God is a God of order, therefore it is fitting that one keep order in giving too, 2. giving should not depend on our mood and chance, 3. the work in God's kingdom is not accomplished at a single stroke, but goes on continually, 4. it is easier to give five cents a week than a larger sum all at once. One feels it the least. Note. If one is to give larger sums all at once, the old Adam resists and often nothing comes of it. Through systematic giving the flesh can most easily be suppressed. 5. Through regular, systematic giving, unbelievable things are accomplished. — The regular, small drops fill the rivers and streams. — What can, for example, a ladies' society or young men's society accomplish through regular, monthly contributions! — Story. Luth. 60, 138. Note a. Therefore it is good 1. that congregations fix regular collections from the outset, 2. that businessmen give a certain percentage of their income. Note b. Thereby many an appeal in the "Lutheraner" would become unnecessary. Note c. "Upon the first day of the week," 1 Cor. 16:2, is no command, but certainly counsel, not to be despised:

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.
