Imagine yourself a typesetter working in a print shop in Wittenberg in the year 1520, you are no longer an apprentice, and your foreman hands you an important assignment to set the type for what will become a small booklet. You sit down to review the material at your type setters desk and move the boxes of lead type that are sitting there out of the way. Who is this for you? Wonder out loud. The writing of the manuscript is recognizable. This is the great martin Luther, the university professor and preacher and the most important customer of your shop. It could be said that you have your employment because of this man's voluminous writing habit and popularity. Even with these things. You are suspicious, however, and harbor in your heart reservations about the new teachings of this rebel priest.
