Description:
New Dehli: Gita Publishing House. 2nd ed.. Trade paperback. Very good. Rounding of corners and edges. Complaints, criticism, passing the buck, shifting the blame onto others...Has this not become a way of life for many of us? We find one thousand things that are wrong with life and people and the way the world functions. Oh yes, we are very good at judging, evaluating, criticising and finding fault with everything, everyone and the system! Allow us a little rope, and we can actually lecture to God and what is wrong with His plan and His management of our world! --excerpt from back cover .

Der sogenannte große oder Dresdner KatechismusWeltweit gibt es nur noch etwa drei weitere Exemplare in Staatsbibliotheken eines davon befindet sich in der Valparaiso University, Indiana, zum Gebrauch in der Bibliothek bestimmt. Dieses Buch kann dort nicht ausgeliehen werden. Benutzung nur unter Aufsicht, wie auch in der Staatsbibliothek Leipzig. Hier sind nur Teil eins und zwei vorhanden. Ein weiteres Exemplar befindet sich in Wittenberg. Dieses scheint vollständig zu sein.Dieses Buch enthält drei Teile, Teil 1 166 Seiten, Teil 2 190 Seiten, Teil 3 141 Seiten, jeweils ohne Vorrede und Register gezählt. Auf Grund der absoluten weltweiten Seltenheit dieses Exemplares und der Einzigartigkeit sollte dieses Buch an einen Sammler gehen, der es als Teil der Geschichte schätzt. Von der theologischen Aussage handelt es sich um ein lutherisches Buch, das den großen Katechismus Luthers variiert. In allen Landeskirchen bis zu den großen Städten hinab hat es seit dem 16. Jahrhundert immer wieder Bearbeitungen der Katechismen Luthers für verschiedenste Zwecke gegeben. In den lutherischen Landeskirchen bildeten die Katechismen Luthers die Grundlage jeder religiösen Erziehung und theologischen Ausbildung. Das Einzigartige des Buches besteht in Neuordnung der katechetischen Gegenstände sowie den Zielpersonen des Buches, nämlich den auf dem Land arbeitenden Lehrern. Altersgemäß gebräunt, seitenweise etwas stockfleckig, ansonsten sehr gut erhalten.Einband etwas abgegriffen
