First Edition
Overview
Late seventeenth-century Lutheran academic dissertation that reads Genesis 49:11 ("He Shall Wash His Robe in Wine, and His Garment in the Blood of Grapes") as the starting point for a philological and theological inquiry into prophecy, Christology, and sacramental language. The author traces the synonymous pairing of "wine" and "blood of grapes" through Hebrew exegesis, advances a Messianic reading focused on the Passion with John 19:34 as hinge, treats Christ's humanity and the purification of the Church, and mounts an explicit anti-Reformed rebuttal to Piscator on figurative language and Eucharistic theology.
Inside the book
The disputation is proposed by Quandt, an assistant pastor, for public discussion under the presidency of Bernhard von Sanden. The text is in learned Latin with embedded Hebrew and Greek and frequent patristic and classical citation.
Why La Fenice chose it
A biblical verse with a nod to wine, read as oracle and sparking a fervent Lutheran debate in seventeenth-century academia.
