Part of the work of this page is to try to see major works in foreign languages in this subject translated into English for the enrichment of our theological thought, knowledge and study. Some Important works bearing on Biblical Psychology have still not been translated into English.
I have access to some of these works in the original languages and would be happy to make them available to anyone with the linguistic skills and inclination to provide translations or partial translations of these works. I would also be happy to make these available on line for all or cooperate with the translator in seeing them published.
I am also now persuing the translation of these works using modern electronic translation software. This should hopefully make the translation of texts more viable.
If you can offer your
services and skills as a benefactor in the translation of these or other
works it would be great to hear from you! Also if you would be able to
help sponsor or support a translation I would be interested in hearing
from you! If you feel prompted to help contribute to this study in these
ways, please contact me via my email at the top of the page.

Apparently there is an unpublished translation of this book, but I am not sure of whom it is by or where I could get a copy. I would appreciate any information about this. If you can help, please email me at cohnmat@yahoo.com.au
GERMAN
Die Lehre von Menschennach Geist, Seele, und Leib, Carl Gustav von Rudloff, Leipzig 1858.
Both Franz Delitzsch in his System of Biblical Psychology and Rev. J.B. Heard in his "The Tripartite Nature of Man" make reference to this work as deserving of attention. von Rudloff was a General Major in the Prussian Army and Heard comments "it is only in Prussia that generals handle points in speculative theology". von Rudloff was an important part of the Mid 1850's surge in German Theology of studying this subject.
