On Death, Part One-Theological Commonplaces

Focusing on eschatology, this volume presents the first part of Johann Gerhard's work on Death, a significant contribution to Lutheran theology from the early seventeenth century. Gerhard's accessible writing style merges deep theological insights with ethical considerations, making it valuable for both research and practical application. This translation is essential for pastors and church workers, as it lays the groundwork for understanding Lutheran doctrine on Last Things, including the Resurrection of the Dead, featured in the original eighth volume.
