At first Emser was on the side of the reformers, but like his patron he desired a practical reformation of the clergy without any doctrinal breach with the past or the church ; and his liberal sympathies were mainly humanistic, like those of Erasmus and others who parted company with Luther after 1519.

Emser was a vigorous controversialist, and next to Eck the most eminent of the German divines who stood by the old church.

In his reply to the Excusatio, Melanchthon proved that he was thoroughly versed in theology, and Eck fared still worse in October of the same year when he sought to aid Emser by a strongly worded tirade against Luther.

He used freely the New Testament of Emser ( 1527 ), of whom Martin Luther was wont to say that " he had ploughed with his heifers "; he used likewise other translations compiled in pre-Reformation times, and so did Luther.

Jerome ( or Hieronymus ) Emser ( March 20, 1477 – November 8, 1527 ), German theologian and antagonist of Luther, was born of a good family at Ulm.

Duke George at this time was bent on securing the canonization of Bishop Benno of Meissen, and at his instance Emser travelled through Saxony and Bohemia in search of materials for a life of Benno, which he subsequently published in German and Latin.

Some years later, he wrote a forcible preface to a translation of the New Testament issued at his command by his private secretary, Hieronymus Emser, as an offset to Luther's version.

Emser warned his Bohemian friends against Luther, and Luther retorted with an attack on Emser which outdid in scurrility all his polemical writings.

Emser next, in 1521, published an attack on Luther's Appeal to the German Nobility, and eight works followed from his pen in the controversy, in which he defended the Roman doctrine of the Mass and the primacy of the pope.

Eck's only followers were the aged heretic-hunter Hoogstraten and Emser of Leipzig, together with the allied authorities of the universities of Cologne and Leuven.

His chief canonical works are: Institutionum juris naturalis et ecclesiastici publici libri V ( Augsburg, 1784 ; Ghent, 1823 ; Rome, 1832 ); De usu publici commentariolus ( Augsburg, 1784 ; Ghent, 1823 ); Historische Bemerkungen uber das sogenannte Resultat des Emser Congressus ( Frankfort and Leipzig, 1787 ); Institutiones juris ecclesiastici, maxime privati, ordine Decretalium ( 5 vols., Augsburg, 1792-3 ; 3 vols., Rome, 1832 ).

As late as that year Luther referred to him as " Emser noster ," but the Leipzig Debate in that year completed the breach between them.
