This volume contains the second and final part of Johann Gerhard’s commonplace On Death, originally published in 1621 in the eighth volume of Gerhard’s Theological Commonplaces. This volume deals not just with death, narrowly, but with other important topics for Christian faith and pastoral care of souls, addressing such topics as: sleep of the separated souls, dead saints and their awareness, whether the saints preside over human affairs, and whether the saints should be invoked. The Theological Commonplaces series is the first-ever English translation of the monumental Loci Theologici from Johann Gerhard, the premier Lutheran theologian of the early seventeenth century.
