"And let schools be established in which boys may learn to read. Correct carefully
the Psalms, the signs in writing, the songs, the calendar, the grammar, in each
monastery or bishopric, and the Catholic books; because often men desire to pray to

| What did Luther mean about “inlettered.” |

Definition
| Holy Scripture is God’s Word clad in human words, “inlettered,” Luther said . . . . Christ ever remains the Lord of Scripture, which is a means to faith but not an object of faith. . . . In this way the formal principle of the Reformation is determined by the material principle: Justification by faith alone based upon the grace and work of Christ alone is the key to understanding God’s revelation in Scripture alone. |
