In the summer and fall of 1526 Luther took up the challenge to lecture on Ecclesiastes to the small band of students who stayed behind in Wittenberg during the plague. “Solomon the preacher,” he wrote to a friend, “is giving me a hard time, as though he begrudged anyone lecturing on him. But he must yield." That is what study was to Luther—taking a text the way Jacob took the angel of the Lord, and saying: “It must yield. I will hear and know the Word of God in this text for my soul and for the church!”
