Luther on Genesis: A Critical and Devotional Commentary on the Creation, Sin, and the Flood by Martin Luther
Luther on Genesis: A Critical and Devotional Commentary on the Creation, Sin, and the Flood by Martin Luther

“Luther began and closed his blessed ministry in the church of God not by fighting the Pope, but by expounding the Word of God. He began by explaining the whole Psalter… and closed his life’s labors by expounding the first book of the Bible, Genesis… He commenced with the penitential Psalms of David and ended with Moses, the earliest writings of the Old Testament. The reason so many preachers and congregations neglect the Old Testament is because it is neglected in the seminaries. God willing a volume of Luther on the Prophetical Books will be issued and then in all three years at the seminary the students may have something of Luther on the Pentateuch, Psalms and Prophets.” — Dr. Lenker

Sayings and Doings of Luther by John Gottlieb Morris

“Of thirteen hundred and forty-three books… written on the subject of Luther… not one is like this one… Some may think that I should have given my authorities and references; but as the book was (made) for plain readers… the mention of which would have interrupted the narrative and been of no service. - John G Morris”

Luther's Galatians Commentary Complete and Unabridged by Martin Luther
Luther's Galatians Commentary Complete and Unabridged by Martin Luther

“‘The Epistle to the Galatians was a favorite of Luther’s… He found in it a source of strength for his own faith and life, and an armory of weapons for his reforming work… He came to think very little of his earlier commentaries. ‘They won’t do at all for this age ;’ he said, ‘they were only my first struggles against the confidence of works.’ But he rated his later exposition more highly. When the complete Latin edition of his works was in preparation a couple of years before his death, he said: ‘If they took my advice, they’d print only the books containing doctrine, like the Galatians.’” — From the Editor’s Preface

Luther's Galatians Commentary in Modern English (Graebner trans.)

We want you to help us publish some leading work of Luther’s for the general American market. Will you do it?’

The Table Talk of Doctor Martin Luther: A Selection
The Table Talk of Doctor Martin Luther: A Selection

“Another quality that strikes us… is Luther’s unfailing sense of humor. Reformers are usually deficient in humor. Their earnestness seldom permits them to laugh. Luther was the most earnest man of his century, and lived in more earnest times than any Europe had witnessed since the close of the first century. But his merry laugh rings through the entire solemn drama of his life. He relieved himself and others by permitting himself glimpses at the ludicrous aspects which human nature presents even in the transaction of its most solemn and momentous matters.

Manual on the Psalms by Martin Luther
Manual on the Psalms by Martin Luther

“[Luther] felt that many things were wanting in this extemporaneous explication… But as he was satisfied that the sense and substance of each Psalm were everywhere faithfully given, and that a very important part of the true religion was here copiously handled; he was, under these assurances, the more willing to overlook any thing that might be wanting in the way of greater correctness, and loftier language and expression.”
