Summary: Arsatio Seehofer had studied with Luther at Wittenberg between stays at the University of Ingolstadt. As Ingolstadt increasingly became the focus of the Catholic revival, Seehofer found himself under attack for his "Lutheran" leanings. This is a commentary by Luther on the seventeen points of doctrine that Seehofer was accused of violating. The work also includes a discussion of Paul Speratus' arrest by the authorities at the University of Vienna on similar charges. This is the second printing of these essays.
