Über diesen Titel

Dive into this captivating collection that opens with two insightful biographical sketches, followed by the remarkable works of St. Patrick of Ireland. John Chrysostoms first homily, translated in 1544, elegantly transitions from a verse in 1 Thessalonians to the profound lives of Abraham and Job. Asterius of Amasea uses the parable to inspire his listeners about the true meaning of possessions, while Basil encourages students to plunder the Egyptians by extracting moral lessons from pagan poets. Maximus the Confessor engages in a pivotal dialogue with Pyrrhus on the dual natures of Christ, and Gregory Thaumaturgus also explores themes of the incarnation. Discover intriguing biographical insights from Gregory of Nazianzus in his tomb inscriptions, aimed at deterring grave-robbers. The dramatic exchange between John Chrysostom and Pope Innocent I unfolds against the backdrop of the Synod of the Oak, where Theophilus of Alexandria unexpectedly arrives in Constantinople, leading to Chrysostoms deposition. Following this, various ethical discourses by Cyprian of Carthage and John Chrysostom offer rich moral reflections. Delve into the heretical views of Noetus, whom Hippolytus challenged for espousing Modalism, and explore Ambroses discussion of the Mysteries, known today as sacraments. The collection also includes two poignant eulogies from John Chrysostom honoring martyrs from Antioch, separated by a century, and Pamphilus early exposition of the book of Acts with its 40 sections, concluding with Melitos apology directed to Marcus Aurelius. - Summary by InTheDesertCopyright Religious Texts and Commentary
