Si les Pères de l’Église, tout comme leurs prédécesseurs et leurs contemporains, les exégètes juifs (rabbins), voulaient exposer leurs idées sur l’histoire des langues, il y avait quelques passages bibliques qu’il était impossible d’ignorer. D’abord celui du chapitre 2 du livre de la Genèse, où Dieu charge Adam de nommer…

Article. Brian Lowery, OSA. Reflections on some “spontaneous” prayers in the Confessions of St. Augustine.

February 25, 2019 Articles Church History Latina Patrologia Studia/Monographiae No Comments

One of the more immediately striking features of the Confessions of St. Augustine to the modern reader is the fact that they are addressed to God and not to him or her. You see it in Augustine’s constant use of the word “you”, “tu”, “tibi” referring to God and not to us.…

June 23, 2014 Articles Graeca Latina Patrologia Studia/Monographiae No Comments

Jerome is well known as one of the greatest Church Fathers who studied Hebrew and biblical exegesis under his Jewish teachers in Bethlehem and translated the Old Testament from the original Hebrew text into Latin.

Carpocrate, originaire d’Alexandrie, enseignait vers la moitié du deuxième siècle, que toute chose prend son commencement dans un être inconnu et sans nom. De cet être émane la multitude des esprits.

March 16, 2014 Articles Latina Patrologia No Comments

In the seventh century the Spanish church appears intellectually outstanding. It produced a succession of authors of theological, literary, and liturgical texts that were unparalleled, at least in the West, at this time.

Quote. John D. Niles. Bede’s Cædmon, ‘The Man Who Had No Story’. 2006.

March 15, 2014 Articles Latina Patrologia No Comments

When one examines Bede’s tale of Caedmon with Irish tale-type 2412B in mind, the resemblance of its plot to that structural pattern is quite evident.

In his violent attack on the Valentinians in Book 31 of the Panarion, Bishop Epiphanius, amongst other grievances, also ridicules their views on resurrection: They deny the resurrection of the dead, uttering some senseless fable about it not being this body that rises, but another one which comes from it…
