Addressing the major early Christological heresies, he discusses both the divine gifts but also the divine nature of Christ, citing His titles of divinity and His divine attributes such as eternity, immortality, omnipotence, and others. Christ's assumption of humanity and all its essential properties is also addressed. In the latter sections of the book, Gerhard dwells on the particulars of the communication between natures in the hypostatic union, further suggesting a communication of properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout This Series\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eTheological Commonplaces\u003c\/em\u003e series is the first-ever English translation of Gerhard's monumental Loci Theologici. Gerhard was the premier Lutheran theologian of the early seventeenth century. Combining his profound understanding of evangelical Lutheran theology with a broad interest in ethics and culture, he produced significant works on biblical, doctrinal, pastoral, and devotional theology. Gerhard interacts with the writings of the church fathers, Luther and his contemporaries, and the Catholic and Calvinist theologians of his day. His 17-volume Loci is regarded as the standard compendium of Lutheran orthodoxy, with topics ranging from the proper understanding and interpretation of Scripture to eschatology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUseful for research on Lutheran doctrine, Gerhard's accessible style makes this a must-have on the bookshelf of pastors and professional church workers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach embossed hardback volume includes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe translation of Gerhard's Loci (originally published from 1610 to 1625) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e- a glossary of key theological, rhetorical, and philosophical terms \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e- a name index \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e- a Scripture index \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e- a carefully researched works cited list that presents guidance for deciphering the numerous abbreviations of the other titles from which Gerhard quotes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Johann Gerhard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0758675836\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780758675835\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Concordia Publishing House\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/08\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 424\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.09lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.94d","brand":"Johann Gerhard","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48799427297535,"sku":"9780758675835","price":76.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/on-christ-theological-commonplaces-johann-gerhard-9780758675835","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
