As in "Household Code". I have read some of Luthers work, as well as others.

In my religion class in college, I heard it referred to as "Table Talk." They told us it held a place in church history, because it was a sort of vernacular list of rules, and not used n such a formal way as a lot of the church teaching. I thought that might be a good way to think about talking to table people at a basketball game. But I guess Luther and Rennaissance German religion are not as widely taught as I had thought.

Thanks for caring, CK. My archaic sensibilities were ruffled, but are now smoothed.
