I will look into it, but they were from the Scandinavian countries. In Germany, there might have been a few (can’t remember) but they didn’t take a leadership role.

Apostolic Succession and ordination is one of those, well “odd”, areas in Lutheran theology. You have to be ordained to be able to consecrate the Lords Supper, but the actual specifics of what happens in ordination, and how it happens, is a bit of an open question. One that has never really been settled.

Thanks redgolum. I know of the Scandinavian bishops. Timing is also important.
