Abstract:

尤斯图斯·约拿斯近乎是路德及其教义最忠诚的追随者。他最初是通过伊拉斯谟与路德建立联系，沃尔姆斯会议以后却出于对路德的绝对认同，义无反顾地走向他早期学术偶像的对立面。在维滕贝格工作期间，约拿斯习惯使用奥古斯丁式的“末世论”框架为路德及宗教改革展开辩护，而从未尝试发展任何偏离路德的神学可能。面对多方刁难，约拿斯受命在哈勒地区传教，经过五年即让当地的改革宗势力胜过天主教会。在艾斯莱本，约拿斯目睹并记录了路德的死亡，在报告中他有意强调路德临终前的言语和仪式，以维护路德信仰的正统性，同时又努力把这一事件刻画为对改革宗教义的一次真实见证。

Justus Jonas was close to being the most devoted follower of Luther and his teachings. Initiallyassociated with Luther through Erasmus, after the Worms Conference he moved unhesitatingly towardstheantithesis of his earlier scholarly idol out of absolute identification with Luther. During his time at Wittenberg, Jonas was accustomed to defending Luther and the Reformation using an Augustinian “eschatological”framework, without ever attempting to develop any theological possibilities that deviated fromLuther. Intheface of many difficulties, Jonas was commissioned to preach in the region of Halle, and within five years hadmade the Lutheran Church more powerful than the Catholic Church in the region. At Eisleben, Jonas witnessedand recorded Luther's death, and in his report he intentionally emphasized Luther's dying words and ritualsinorder to preserve the orthodoxy of Luther's faith, while at the same time endeavoring to portray the event asanauthentic witness to Lutheran doctrine.
