The volumes cover the beginning of Christianity until medieval times. This volume is accurately annotated, including \* an extensive biography of the author and his life `Concerning the Orthodox Faith`, the third book of the `Fountain of Wisdom`, is the most important of John Damascene`s writings and one of the most notable works of Christian antiquity. Its authority has always been great among the theologians of the East and West. Here, again, the author modestly disavows any claim of originality - any purpose to essay a new exposition of doctrinal truth. He assigns himself the less pretentious task of collecting in a single work the opinions of the ancient writers scattered through many volumes, and of systematizing and connecting them in a logical whole. It is no small credit to John of Damascus that he was able to give to the Church in the eighth century its first summary of connected theological opinions. At the command of Eugenius III it was rendered into Latin by Burgundio of Pisa, in 1150, shortly before Peter Lombard`s `Book of Sentences` appeared. This translation was used by Peter Lombard and St. Thomas Aquinas, as well as by other theologians, till the Humanists rejected it for a more elegant one. The author follows the same order as does Theodoret of Cyrus in his `Epitome of Christian Doctrine`. But, while he imitates the general plan of Theodoret, he does not make use of his method. He quotes, not only form the pages of Holy Writ, but also from the writings of the Fathers. As a result, his work is an inexhaustible thesaurus of tradition which became the standard for the great Scholastics who followed. In particular, he draws generously from Gregory of Nazianzus, whose works he seems to have absorbed, from Basil, Gregory of Nyssa, Cyril of Alexandria, Leo the Great, Athanasius, John Chrysostum, and Epiphanius. The work is divided into four books. This division, however, is an arbitrary one neither contemplated by the author nor justified by the Greek manuscript. It is probably the work of a Latin translator seeking to accommodate it to the style of the four books of Lombard`s `Sentences`. ····· 1036143489

The volumes cover the beginning of Christianity until before the promulgation of the Nicene Creed at the First Council of Nicaea.Sozomen`s `Ecclesiastical History` was written in Constantinople, around the years 440 to 443 and was dedicated to Emperor Theodosius II.The work is structured into nine books, roughly arranged along the reigns of Roman Emperors:Book I: from the conversion of Constantine I until the Council of Nicea (312-325)Book II: from the Council of Nicea to Constantine`s death (325-337)Book III: from the death of Constantine I to the death of Constans I (337-350)Book IV: from the death of Constans I to the death of Constantius II (350-361)Book V: from the death of Constantius I to the death of Julian the Apostate (361-363)Book VI: from the death of Julian to the death of Valens (363-375)Book VII: from the death of Valens to the death of Theodosius I (375-395)Book VIII: from the death of Theodosius I to the death of Arcadius (375-408).Book IX: from the death of Arcadius to the accession of Valentinian III (408-25).Book IX is incomplete. In his dedication of the work, he states that he intended cover up to the 17th consulate of Theodosius II, that is, to 439. The extant history ends about 425. Scholars disagree on why the end is missing. Albert Guldenpenning supposed that Sozomen himself suppressed the end of his work because in it he mentioned the Empress Aelia Eudocia, who later fell into disgrace through her supposed adultery. However, it appears that Nicephorus, Theophanes, and Theodorus Lector did read the end of Sozomen`s work, according to their own histories later. Therefore most scholars believe that the work did actually come down to that year, and that consequently it has reached us only in a damaged condition. ····· 1036143484

Gregory, his brother Basil of Caesarea and Gregory of Nazianzus are collectively known as the Cappadocian Fathers Gregory lacked the administrative ability of his brother Basil, or the contemporary influence of Gregory of Nazianzus, but was an erudite theologian who made significant contributions to the doctrine of the Trinity and the Nicene creed. Gregory`s philosophical writings were influenced by Origen, and he is generally considered to have believed in universal salvation. Since the mid-twentieth century, there has been a significant increase in interest in Gregory`s works from the academic community, which has resulted in challenges to many traditional interpretations of his theology.

His works are hailed by Christians throughout the world and many denominations venerate him as a saint. He has been declared a Doctor of the Church in Roman Catholicism. He is especially beloved in the Syriac Orthodox Church. Ephrem wrote a wide variety of hymns, poems, and sermons in verse, as well as prose biblical exegesis. These were works of practical theology for the edification of the church in troubled times. So popular were his works, that, for centuries after his death, Christian authors wrote hundreds of pseudepigraphal works in his name. Ephrem`s works witness to an early form of Christianity in which western ideas take little part. He has been called the most significant of all of the fathers of the Syriac-speaking church tradition.

He is highly respected in the Palestinian Christian Community. (courtesy of wikipedia.com) His famous twenty-three catechetical lectures, which he delivered while still a presbyter in 347 or 348, contain instructions on the principal topics of Christian faith and practice, in rather a popular than a scientific manner, full of a warm pastoral love and care for the catechumens to whom they were delivered. Each lecture is based upon a text of Scripture, and there is an abundance of Scriptural quotation throughout. After a general introduction, eighteen lectures follow for the competentes, and the remaining five are addressed to the newly baptized, in preparation for the reception of Holy Communion.

The volumes cover the beginning of Christianity until before the promulgation of the Nicene Creed at the First Council of Nicaea. Every single volume is accurately annotated, including \* an extensive biography of the author and his life This volume contains the following writings: The `Miscellanies` (Stromateis) and `The Tutor` (Paidagogos). The `Miscellanies` comprise seven entire books, of which the first four are earlier than `The Tutor`. When he had finished this latter work he returned to the `Miscellanies`, which he was never able to finish. The first pages of the work are now missing. What has been known as the eighth book since the time of Eusebius is nothing more than a collection of extracts drawn from pagan philosophers. In the `Miscellanies` Clement disclaims order and plan. He compares the work to a meadow where all kinds of flowers grow at random and, again, to a shady hill or mountain planted with trees of every sort. In fact, it is a loosely related series of remaks, possibly notes of his lectures in the school. It is the fullest of Clement`s works. He starts with the importance of philosophy for the pursuit of Christian knowledge. Here he is perhaps defending his own scientific labours from local criticism of conservative brethren. He shows how faith is related to knowledge, and emphasizes the superiority of revelation to philosophy. God`s truth is to be found in revelation, another portion of it in philosophy. It is the duty of the Christian to neglect neither. Religious science, drawn from his twofold source, is even an element of perfection, the instructed Christian -- `the true Gnostic` is the perfect Christian. He who has risen to this height is far from the disturbance of passion he is united to God, and in a mysterious sense is one with Him. Such is the line of thought indicated in the work, which is full of digressions. `The Tutor` is a practical treatise in three books. Its purpose is to fit the ordinary Christian by a disciplined life to become an instructed Christian. In ancient times the paedagogus was the slave who had constant charge of a boy, his companion at all times. On him depended the formation of the boy`s character. such is the office of the Word Incarnate towards men. He first summons them to be HIS, then He trains them in His ways. His ways are temperate, orderly, calm, and simple. Nothing is too common or trivial for the Tutor`s care. His influence tells on the minute details of life, on one`s manner of eating, drinking, sleeping, dressing, taking recreation, etc. The moral tone of this work is kindly very beautiful is the ideal of a transfigured life described at the close.

····· lezzter Preis 3.99€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray `The Sacred Writings Of ...` provides you with the essential works among the Early Christian writings. The volumes cover the beginning of Christianity until before the promulgation of the Nicene Creed at the First Council of Nicaea. Every single volume is accurately annotated, including \* an extensive biography of the author and his life To overcome the doubts of the local bishop as to the earnestness of his Christian belief Arnobius wrote (about 305) an apologetic work in seven books that St. Jerome calls (De Vir. Ill., lxxix) `Adversus Gentes` but is entitled `Adversus Nationes` in the only (ninth-century) manuscript that has reached us. Arnobius is a vigorous apologist for the Christian Faith, defends and expounds its noble monotheism (deus princeps, deus summus), the Divinity of Christ and of the Christian religion, proved by its rapid diffusion, its incredible influence over uncivilized peoples, and its agreement with the views of the best philosophers. ····· 1036143470· 1 · ::::: · 3 ·· 4 ·· 5 ·· 6 ·· 7 ·· 8 ·· 9 · ::::: · 11 ·
