An Exposition upon the Song of the Blessed Virgin Mary called Magnificat
Martin Luther
Read by InTheDesert
Luther's 1521 exposition of the Magnificat was written for John Frederick I, Elector of Saxony (1503-1554), at that time a teenager. It was written in two parts, being interrupted by Luther's appearance at the Diet of Worms. It is sermonic in form but written to be read rather than heard. - Summary by InTheDesert (2 hr 45 min)
