Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer: For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.

  • THE DEVELOPMENT of JEWISH IDEAS of ANGELS: EGYPTIAN and HELLENISTIC CONNECTIONS Ca
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF JEWISH IDEAS OF ANGELS: EGYPTIAN AND HELLENISTIC CONNECTIONS ca. 600 BCE TO ca. 200 CE. Annette Henrietta Margaretha Evans Dissertation Presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Stellenbosch Promotor: Prof. J. Cook Co-promotor: Prof. J. C. Thom March 2007 DECLARATION I, the undersigned, declare that the work contained in this dissertation is my own original work and has not previously in its entirety or in part been submitted at any university for a degree. Signature Date (Annette Henrietta Margaretha Evans) i ABSTRACT This dissertation sets out to test the hypothesis that Egyptian and Hellenistic connections to Jewish beliefs about the functioning of angels facilitated the reception of Christianity. The method of investigation involved a close reading, combined with a History of Religions methodology, of certain texts with marked angelological content. The presence of certain motifs, especially “throne” and “sun/fire”, which were identified as characteristic of angelic functioning, were compared across the entire spectrum of texts. In this way the diachronic development of major angelological motifs became apparent, and the synchronic connections between the respective cultural contexts became noticeable. The course the research followed is reflected in the list of Contents. Ancient Egyptian myth and ritual associated with solar worship, together with Divine Council imagery, provides a pattern of mediation between heaven and earth via two crucial religious concepts which underly Jewish beliefs about the functioning of angels: 1) the concept of a supreme God as the king of the Gods as reflected in Divine Council imagery, and 2) the unique Egyptian institution of the king as the divine son of god (also related to the supremacy of the sun god).

  • The Synodical Letter from Severus to John of Alexandria
    Youhanna Nessim Youssef Melbourne, Australia [email protected] THE SYNODICAL LETTER FROM SEVERUS TO JOHN OF ALEXANDRIA Introduction Le ers are one of the most important sources of the life of Severus of Antioch.1 Synodical Le ers are those wri en by a patriarch soon a er his consecration, conveying the news of his election by the Synod which presided over it. The purpose of these instruments of ecclesial communion was to prove the orthodoxy of the writers. They contain a profession of faith, a statement by the new Patriarch, etc.2 In his monu- mental study, J. M. Fiey highlights the importance of the Synodical Le ers between the Patriarchs of Alexandria and Antioch especially starting at the time of Severus of Antioch.3 A er the election of Dioscorus II as new Patriarch, he wrote to Severus and received from him a reply (515–517).4 It seems that Timo- thy III5 (517–535) did not write a Synodical Le er to Severus, since Severus was hiding. However, according to the History of the Patriarchs6 and the Synaxarium7, he welcomed Severus while exiled and escaping (1) P. Allen and C. T. R.

  • Foxe's Book of Martyrs
    FOXE'S BOOK OF MARTYRS CHAPTER I - History of Christian Martyrs to the First General Persecutions Under Nero Christ our Savior, in the Gospel of St. Matthew, hearing the confession of Simon Peter, who, first of all other, openly acknowledged Him to be the Son of God, and perceiving the secret hand of His Father therein, called him (alluding to his name) a rock, upon which rock He would build His Church so strong that the gates of hell should not prevail against it. In which words three things are to be noted: First, that Christ will have a Church in this world. Secondly, that the same Church should mightily be impugned, not only by the world, but also by the uttermost strength and powers of all hell. And, thirdly, that the same Church, notwithstanding the uttermost of the devil and all his malice, should continue. Which prophecy of Christ we see wonderfully to be verified, insomuch that the whole course of the Church to this day may seem nothing else but a verifying of the said prophecy. First, that Christ hath set up a Church, needeth no declaration. Secondly, what force of princes, kings, monarchs, governors, and rulers of this world, with their subjects, publicly and privately, with all their strength and cunning, have bent themselves against this Church! And, thirdly, how the said Church, all this notwithstanding, hath yet endured and holden its own! What storms and tempests it hath overpast, wondrous it is to behold: for the more evident declaration whereof, I have addressed this present history, to the end, first, that the wonderful works of God in His Church might appear to His glory; also that, the continuance and proceedings of the Church, from time to time, being set forth, more knowledge and experience may redound thereby, to the profit of the reader and edification of Christian faith.

    Anxious Origins: Zora Neale Hurston and the Global South, 1927-1942 By Dana Badley III Submitted to the graduate degree program in English and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ________________________________ Chairperson: Dr. Doreen Fowler ________________________________ Dr. Giselle Anatol ________________________________ Dr. Cheryl Lester Date Defended: March 26, 2014 ii The Thesis Committee for Dana Badley III certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Anxious Origins: Zora Neale Hurston and the Global South, 1927-1942 ________________________________ Chairperson: Dr. Doreen Fowler Date approved: March 26, 2014 iii ABSTRACT Zora Neale Hurston’s autoethnographic trilogy of the Global South – Mules and Men (1935), Tell My Horse (1938), and Dust Tracks on a Road (1942) – charts a geocultural terrain that recovers transgressive histories otherwise erased from public historical discourse. The medium is the message: penned in dialect obscuring the subversive “inside meanin’ of words,” her folklore collections split the historical archive wide open by incorporating the lives and deaths of “unreal” bodies into a preexisting narrative of Southern subjugation. These politically subversive tales of agency and resistance enact a dynamic, malleable, intergenerational mode of oral history that suggests the unfinished work of mourning for that which is no longer there. Trained as an anthropologist at Columbia University yet distrustful of the profession’s intentions, Hurston confronts her own ambivalence towards the ethnographic archive throughout her career dedicated to (re)tracing these anxious origins, prefigured as both genetically specific and racially mythologized, across a region beset by a politics of racialized loss.

  • EGYPTIANS in IRELAND: a QUESTION of COPTIC PEREGRINATIONS by Robert K
    EGYPTIANS IN IRELAND: A QUESTION OF COPTIC PEREGRINATIONS by Robert K. Ritner, Jr. The onedutv we oue to hi~torvIS to rewr~te~t Oscar Wllde Tile Ctrirc a\ At tr,~ The Book of Antiphons of the Monastery of Bangor, Ireland, contains a poem about the monastery regimen of which the following quotation is a part: Domus dcllci~~pIena Super petram constructs Necnonvlnea Vera Ex Aegvpto transducta . I The home to which the poem refers is, of course, the monastic organiza- tion itself, born on Egyptian soil in the fourth century, and eventually spreading throughout the West. But nowhere did it attain such pervasive importance as in Ireland. Maire and Liam de Paor note the presence of Egyptian-oriented monasticism in the British Isles during the fifth century,' and such monastic communities were encountered by both Patrick in the fifth century and Augusrine of Canterbury in 597, in Ireland and England respectively. Similar communities continued to exist in Britain as a tradition in opposition to Roman authority, and Bede makes frequent references to their non-Catholic practices.7 In Ireland, however, in contrast to the Western diocesan system, monasticism provided the main organhation of the Church. Church leaders, moreover, were selected from among the monks themselves, a practice which lasted at least until the twelfth-century arrival of the chronicler Giraldus Cambrensis with the invading Normans. The close similarity to the structure of the Coptic Church-monastically oriented in form and leadership-as well as the early and somewhat myste- rious spread of Christianity into the British Isles, has led many to postulate factors of Coptic influence, if not direct participation by Coptic mission- aries.
