Following the Leipzig disputation between Johannes Eck and Martin Luther , Andreas Karlstadt and Philipp Melanchthon , numerous writings (reports, commentaries, polemics, etc.) are written and extensive correspondence takes place between those involved and those interested. Melanchthon sees the need to grasp the authority of the Bible ( Sola scriptura ) more clearly - since the authority of the Pope and councils has been relativized. On September 9th he presented the following bachelor thesis for discussion: "It is not necessary for a Catholic to believe others beyond the things which are testified to him by the Scriptures" .
Erasmus von Rotterdam publishes the second edition of Novum Instrumentum omne under the title Novum Testamentum . The text of 1516 was changed in over 400 places and typographical errors corrected.
