"This book focuses on Luther's very last lectures, which interpret the Joseph story in the final chapters of Genesis. Scholars have frequently neglected the later Luther and the Genesis Lectures, making this an important new contribution to the field. Luther's lectures are not a modern scientific commentary, but enarrations, as Kenneth Hagen calls them, filled with public proclamation, expanded narrative, and a performative sense of language. The author furthers Oswald Bayer's performative interpretation of Luther's theology with a more sophisticated linguistic philosophy, while continuing Bayer's theological direction. The book is an important new contribution to Luther studies, will be of interest to seminarians as well as to students of hermeneutics,homiletics, the relevance of the performative in proclamation, and philosophy of language"
