Return to Volume 19

Anno 1533.

This letter of consolation is found in Walch, St. Louis edition, vol. X, 1932-1957. Walch's remark, l. c., Col. 1936, that the whole piece from § 10 to the end is not found in the first edition, is erroneous. Not in the first edition, but in the collection of the Trostschriften at Jena, by Rödinger's heirs, this piece is missing. Cf. De Wette, vol. VI, p. 536, note 3.

1842 Erl. 31, 270 f. Threefold appendix of some of Luther's controversial writings. W. XIX, 229S-2297. 1843
