Acht sermon
Summary: Second printing of the eight sermons Luther preached on his return from Wartburg Castle, March 9-16, 1522. They dealt with the mass, the Lord's Supper, images, fating, auricular confession, and other topics. These sermons allowed Luther to restore order in Wittenberg and put and end to the Tumults that had griped the city during his absence.
