An Explanation of Luther''s Small Catechism: A Handbook for the Catechetical Class (Classic Reprint) - Couverture souple
Présentation de l'éditeur
This book is written in the thetical form instead of the traditional form of questions and answers. There is nothing in the nature of catechization which would require the use of the interrogative form in such a text-book, and accordingly the thetical form has for years been employed by numerous writers of text-books for the catechetical class in Germany.

Luther scatechism itself is, indeed, in the form of questions and answers. But his catechism is confessional as well as didactic, and its words, memorized by the catechumen, are to become a personal confession of faith. The explanations of a text-book, on the other hand, are not to be memorized, but are meant to aid the catechumen in grasping the thoughts of the catechism. For this purpose, the thetical form is better than the interrogative, because the explanation is not continually broken by questions, and is thus better adapted to give the catechumens a connected idea of the doctrines taught. Each chapter of this explanation is followed by a number of questions. After the pastor has explained a lesson at one meeting, the catechumens sho
