RT Article T1 Reception history and its value: a german lutheran view JF Annali di storia dell'esegesi VO 37 IS 1 SP 109 OP 120 A1 Gummelt, Eva-Maria ca. 20./21. Jh. LA English PB Ed. Dehoniane YR 2020 UL https://www.ixtheo.de/Record/1737506017 AB The article explores the question of the relevance of reception history for current protestant exegesis, whereby reception history is defined as a written exegetical examination of biblical texts. In view of the growing reference to reception history in protestant exegesis, questions are asked about the compatibility of reception history with the sola Scriptura as it is presented in Martin Luther’s Assertio. The article proposes an approach to the written interpretation verified on the biblical text. These approach to reception history from a protestant point of view is then illustrated using exemplary interpretations of Matthew 8: 23-27 and presented as the basis for a further ecumenical perspective. As the article is based on works of Ulrich Luz, it is also written in honour of him. K1 Martin Luther K1 Ulrich Luz K1 Reception History K1 Wirkungsgeschichte K1 Mt 8:23–27
