Note 1334 — Chapter XXXIX · END OF LUTHER’S LIFE
E. M. Lamond translation
Mathesius, “Tischreden,” p. 341 with Kroker’s remarks; the latter places this important utterance recorded by Besold (1544) in its right chronological setting, as against Lœsche and Köstlin. Here Luther says, in condemnation of processions: “Alia res est circumferri, alia elevari.” The Wittenberg Concord says evasively: “The Body of Christ is present when the bread is received, and is truly given.” Köstlin-Kawerau, 2, p. 346.
