The vivid imagination and the sharp observation of men and nature that marked his mind; his acquaintance with common speech and his joy in the use of proverbs; indeed, his capacity to express in
creative speaking with a skill that only a poet and genius possesses the whole range of human emotions from awe in the presence of the numinous to the feelings of the body — all are reflected in his sermons (as also in the commentaries, his work of the
lecture room), not consistently, of course, and not every time, yet most impressively in the Church Postil Sermons, one of the products of his exile
on Wartburg Castle,
written in order to furnish to the preachers of the Reformation examples of Biblical preaching.
