The daily Luther

17th January

Think not that I am sent to bring peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

This Breviary in German and English encourages the reader to follow the liturgical year, day-for-day with a verse from the Bible and Martin Luther's interpretation of it.

The texts are closely based on the 1984 revised version of Luther's Bible. The English translation by John Gledhill and Philip Wilson draws inspiration from the expressive and melodic language of the King James Bible. This Luther Breviary is ideal for English-speaking Lutherans or anyone interested in the ideas of Martin Luther. Additionally this Brevier is an aesthetically-challenging, meditative language-trainer in an especially unique way which can and should help bridge historical and national boundaries.
