This seminal monograph on prayer in Luther's theology takes as its basic source text Luther's third lecture on the psalms, which has hitherto received little attention from researchers. The lecture is taken as a form of interactive performance of a prayer of thanks and intercession grounded in the theology of justification. The main point of the study is given in its thematic focus on the prayer act of praise and thanksgiving which Luther brings up in his programmatic first sentence. It becomes plausible that giving the prayers of praise and thanksgiving priority over the prayer of intercession is based on the theology of justification.
With its special methodology, this study opens up a new approach to Luther's theology and makes a claim for no less than general theological relevance.
