Summary: The first edition of Martin Luther's first book, this is Luther's commentary on the seven penitential Psalms (Psalms 6, 32, 38, 51, 102, 130, and 143) based on his lectures at the University of Wittenberg and published in March1517, six months before his 95 Theses. The Reformer's understanding of repentance, penance and grace, influenced by the medieval mystic Johannes Tauler, became central to his theology and underlies his later critique of indulgences. Luther revised this commentary in 1525.
