In recent years, the high level of trust among Scandinavians in general and Danes in particular has attracted considerable international interest. The article unearths the rooting of Danish trust culture in Lutheran soil arguing for the influence of Lutheran theology and social teaching on Danish society from the Reformation onwards as a key to understanding its historical background. It identifies central social imaginaries of trust in Luther's work and trace their impact on eighteenth‐ and nineteenth‐century Danish Lutheran confessional culture by analyzing texts written by the influential theologians Erik Pontoppidan (1698–1764) and Niels Frederik Severin Grundtvig (1783–1872).

近年来，斯堪的纳维亚人尤其是丹麦人之间的高度信任引起了国际上的极大关注。文章发掘了丹麦信义文化在路德会土壤中的根源，认为路德教的神学和社会教学从改革开始就对丹麦社会产生了影响，这是理解其历史背景的关键。它通过分析有影响力的神学家埃里克·蓬托皮丹（Erik Pontoppidan）（1698–1764）和尼尔斯·弗雷德里克·塞维林·格伦特维格（Niels Frederik Severin Grundtvig（1783–1872））撰写的文本，确定了对卢瑟作品信任的中央社会想象者，并追溯了他们对18世纪和19世纪丹麦路德教会的悔文化的影响。 。
