The German edition of Commentary on Luther's Catechisms by Albrecht Peters has long been the gold standard of research on the catechetical texts of the great reformer. This translation makes the wealth of research available in English for both the researcher and the catechist. Separate volumes address the Decalogue, the Creed, the Lord's Prayer, the Sacraments, and Confession with the Table of Duties, prayers, and the Marriage and Baptismal Booklets.

For Luther, God's action in creation, redemption, sanctification, justification, and prayer are inseparably tied together with one another, and all true prayer finds the seed around which it can crystallize in the Lord's Prayer. The reformer develops these central insights throughout his several different explanations of the Lord's Prayer. This book shows what types of changes took place in Luther's explanations before reaching the present form in the catechisms and provides the needed context of Luther's interpretation within that of the Western tradition.
