Writings with premillennial interpretations of biblical prophecy by a Lutheran pastor at the beginning of the twentieth century. This collection, in three full size boxes and three half-size boxes, is divided into three series. The bulk of the material is in the first series, Holographs. These manuscripts reflect George N. H. Peters' interest in biblical prophecy. The dated writings range from 1902 to 1907. Although the works with title pages seem to have been ready to send to a publisher, no record has been found that they were published. Some writings have two systems of pagination, possibly because the work was originally part of another title. Most of the handwriting is very legible, and is usually in purple ink on lined paper, with red underling for emphasis. One exception is the very small handwriting on assorted pieces of paper used for the notes comprising the Courses of Bible Studies. The majority of the works are undated. The second series is undated Typescripts, which were prepared years after Peters' death, partly in an attempt to get the manuscripts published. There was interest in the works, but publishers did not think they would be economically feasible. Some typescripts are incomplete. The third series, Miscellaneous, is primarily composed of periodicals ranging in dates from 1901 to 1908. They provide a small sample of what Peters probably read. This series also contains a leather portfolio. Peters realized his premillennial interpretations were not well received by his colleagues. In his introduction to Exegetical Studies of Isaiah 29 ... Peters states "These exegetical notes will find acceptance with but few, & will only be appreciated when the future persecution of the church takes place." Peters' preface to Exegetical Studies of Scripture Passages Relating to the Messiah ... indicates the "studies were simply undertaken to support, comfort, & strengthen the writer in his old age" and although they were in "fragmentary form," he wanted to publish them to direct "others to the precious promises of God."
