About this listen

 On the Bondage of the Will, or De Servo Arbitrio in Latin, is a pivotal work by Martin Luther published in December 1525. This powerful treatise serves as Luthers response to Desiderius Erasmuss challenge in his work, De libero arbitrio diatribe sive collatio (On Free Will), which had been released just a year earlier. The crux of their debate revolves around a fundamental question are human beings truly free to choose between good and evil after the Fall of Man? This exchange between Luther and Erasmus marks one of the earliest and most significant discussions of the Reformation, delving deep into the themes of free will and predestination.
