Studie:Preaching of the Apocalypse in the reformation.Heinrich Bullinger does it from 1554 until 1556 in Zürich. Why he did?He was the only major reformer of the second generation who devoted a full-length work tot the Apocalypse. Bullinger gives in Latin model sermons that could be adapted by preachers throughout the reformed churches of Europe. The hundred sermons, which were first published in 1557, obviously filled an important gap in the market of Protestant apocalyptics, for they were reprinted and translated into English, French, Germans and Dutch less than two years later.Interesting is, which motives had Bullinger to make this sermons and why he is the only in his time? Answers, hopefully, give us a few insight how the reforms understanding Apocalyptic text in the sixteenth Century and what Bullinger intrigued to make his sermons of the Apocalypse.
