  • Paschasius Radbertus and the Song of Songs
    chapter 6 “Love’s Lament”: Paschasius Radbertus and the Song of Songs The Song of Songs was understood by many Carolingian exegetes as the great- est, highest, and most obscure of Solomon’s three books of wisdom. But these Carolingian exegetes would also have understood the Song as a dialogue, a sung exchange between Christ and his church: in fact, as the quintessential spiritual song. Like the liturgy of the Eucharist and the divine office, the Song of Songs would have served as a window into heavenly realities, offering glimpses of a triumphant, spotless Bride and a resurrected, glorified Bridegroom that ninth- century reformers’ grim views of the church in their day would have found all the more tantalizing. For Paschasius Radbertus, abbot of the great Carolingian monastery of Corbie and as warm and passionate a personality as Alcuin, the Song became more than simply a treasury of imagery. In this chapter, I will be examining Paschasius’s use of the Song of Songs throughout his body of work. Although this is necessarily only a preliminary effort in understanding many of the underlying themes at work in Paschasius’s biblical exegesis, I argue that the Song of Songs played a central, formative role in his exegetical imagina- tion and a structural role in many of his major exegetical works. If Paschasius wrote a Song commentary, it has not survived; nevertheless, the Song of Songs is ubiquitous in the rest of his exegesis, and I would suggest that Paschasius’s love for the Song and its rich imagery formed a prism through which the rest of his work was refracted.

  • VERY EARLY TRINITARIAN EXPRESSIONS Stuart E
    Tyndale Bulletin 65.1 (2014) 141–152 VERY EARLY TRINITARIAN EXPRESSIONS Stuart E. Parsons Summary While older scholarship identified the earliest use of Trinitarian terminology near the end of the second century in the work of Theophilus of Antioch, some recent studies have challenged this view. However, while affirming certain insights of these newer studies, it is necessary to revisit them in light of the historical setting of the second- century apologists. In reality, Theophilus and other early apologists evidenced a certain implicit Trinitarianism by affirming unity, distinction, eternal pre-existence and economic subordination in the Godhead. Studies of early Trinitarian terminology must look beyond explicit descriptions of the Godhead. They must consider also broad patterns of implicit Trinitarianism. 1. Introduction Older concepts of the Trinitarianism of the second-century apologist, Theophilus of Antioch, have been challenged of late. This is significant, since he has often been considered the first Christian to use Trinitarian terminology.1 These older concepts assert that when Theophilus writes that God, his Logos, and his Sophia are types of a triad (τριάς), he is making the earliest terminological reference (c. 180) to the Trinity.2 J. N. D. Kelly represents this older perspective when he 1 For example, E. Venables, ‘Theophilus (4)’ in Dictionary of Christian Biography (London: Murray, 1911; repr., Peabody, MA: Hendrickson, 1994): 982. 2 Theophilus, Autol., 2.15. On the date of Ad Autolycum, Harnack estimates c. AD 180 as an upper limit for the final letter, since the last emperor it lists is Marcus Aurelius who died in that year. While Erbes argues for a third-century date, claiming that Theophilus did not intend to record recent historical events but only important ones, this is not borne out by the amount of trivial historical information included, nor by his argument about history.

  • Palladas and the Age of Constantine Author(S): KEVIN W
    Palladas and the Age of Constantine Author(s): KEVIN W. WILKINSON Source: The Journal of Roman Studies , 2009, Vol. 99 (2009), pp. 36-60 Published by: Society for the Promotion of Roman Studies constantinethegreatcoins.com Palladas and the Age of Constantine* KEVIN W. WILKINSON The poet and grammarian Palladas of Alexandria, author of more than 150 epigrams in the Greek Anthology, has remained a somewhat elusive figure. Though no epigrammatist is better represented in our two major sources for the Anthology, scarcely a trace of his exist- ence survives outside of his corpus of poems. His identity was so shadowy in the Byzantine period that he did not even warrant a mention in the Suda. By the tenth century, therefore, and presumably long before that time, 'Palladas' was merely the name of a man who had written some decent epigrams. Several clues remain, however, that allow us to locate him in a particular historical context. The history of scholarship on this problem is long and complex, but two rough timelines for his life have been proposed. The traditional estimate of his dates was c. A.D. 360-450. This was revised in the middle of the twentieth century to c. A.D. 319-400. It is my contention that the first of these is about a century too late and the second approximately sixty years too late. Such challenges to long-held opinion do not always enjoy a happy fate. Nevertheless, there are those cases in which the weight of scholarly tradition rests on surprisingly shaky foundations and in which a careful review of the evidence can result in significant improvements.1 The following argument proceeds in six stages: summary of the foundations for the traditional dates (1) and the current consensus (11); discussion of two external clues (in); challenge to the prevailing views (iv); construction of a new timeline (v); conclusions (vi).

  • 3. Fragments of the Apostolic Fathers by Tim Warner © Copyright
    The Evolution of God 3. Fragments of the Apostolic Fathers By Tim Warner © Copyright www.4windsfellowships.net he earliest Christian writers whose works have survived, those known to have direct connections to the Apostles, were one disciple of Paul (Clement of Rome) T and two disciples of John (Polycarp1 of Smyrna and Ignatius2 of Antioch). These authors had been personally instructed by the Apostles and were leaders within the Christian assemblies established by the Apostles. The writings of these men were addressed to fellow believers or assemblies, being pastoral in nature rather than apologetic. They did not attempt to refute heresy or extensively define doctrines, since commonality of doctrine was assumed between writer and his audience. Their surviving works did not attempt to interact with pagans or portray Christianity in ways the pagans could easily digest. They were intended to be read and digested by Christians. These most ancient specimens reflect the common Christian belief in the personal preexistence of the Son of God as the “Word” (Logos) of John’s prologue, His emptying Himself to become fully human, His exaltation to the right hand of God, and His future role as King. Earliest Christian Writers with direct Connections to the Apostles: Clement of Rome: In his epistle to the Corinthians, Clement of Rome referred to Jesus Christ as the speaker in Psalm 118:18, calling Him the “Word.” Clement writes: “For thus saith the holy Word: ‘The Lord hath severely chastened me, yet hath not given me over to death.’”3 That the one speaking in Psalm 118 is the Son of God is shown just four verses later: “The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone.

It will do so by performing a close study of three sources – the Syriac Oration of Meliton the Philosopher, the Syriac translation of the Apology of Aristides, and the Greek Address to the Greeks of Tatian.

    THE OHTI-ROI-IMAN NOVEMBER, 1891. ART. I-THE "APOLOGY" OF ARISTIDES. N these days of unrest and disquietude, when the very foundations of the Creed are assailed, and the contents Iof the canon itself are subjected to the new criticism, we hail with satisfaction any discovery which throws light upon the faith which was held by the lJrimitive Christians of the sub-Apostolic age. Such a very real help we have in the "Apology" of Aristides 011 behalf of the Christians, a fresh :find in the regions of sub-A1Jostolic literature. It is one of the earliest of the a1Jologies made to the Roman Em1Jeror. Aris­ tides takes rank with the other Greek apologists of that early age-with Papias and Q,uadratus, "a disciple of the Apostles," and with the Jewish a1Jologists .Agrippa Castor and ·Justin Martyr, "the true representative of the age"; with Dionysius of Corinth, and Pmytus; with Hermas and Hegesippus ; with Theophilus of Antioch, and Athenagoras of Athens. The work of the early apologists was, as we know, twofold-to determine the relations of Christianity to heathendom rmd to Judaism.1 The first 1\_thenian apologists were Q,uadratus and Aristides, who are supposed to have been almost contemporaries. The "Apology" of Quadratus was generally current in the time of Eusebius, who himself possessed a copy of it; and "one may see in it," he says, "clear 1Jroof of the intellect of the man and of his Apostolic orthodoxy." The single passage which he has preserved shows that Q,nadratus insisted rightly on 1 The word "apology" (cbroA.oyla), a defence, has always had a technical meaning in Christian literature.

  • Clement's Angelological Doctrines
    CLEMENT’S ANGELOLOGICAL DOCTRINES: BETWEEN JEWISH MODELS AND PHILOSOPHIC-RELIGIOUS STREAMS OF LATE ANTIQUITY Monika Recinová 1. The Sources of Clement’s Angelology Angelology is a constitutive element of Clement of Alexandria’s theological project. For Clement the existence of angels was a part of revelation attested to by Scripture. Nevertheless, his own angelology is a consequence of the blending of several originally independent traditions. The belief in interme- diary beings between the transcendent God and the material world formed a part of the generally accepted worldview of second-century Alexandria. As Eric Robertson Dodds remarks: Virtually every one, pagan, Jewish, Christian or Gnostic, believed in the exis- tence of these beings and their function as mediators, whether he called them daemons or angels or aions or simply ‘spirits’ (πνεύµατα).1 The angelological conceptions of the ancient church were not solely a Chris- tian invention, but they derived from several originally independent tradi- tions: the notion of angels as independent beings is, on the one hand, the heritage of biblical texts, and on the other, the later development of Jewish intertestamentary literature (in particular Enoch literature or Jubilees). The exposition on daemons as subsistent intermediary beings was also a standard component of the Middle Platonist theological system, as can be seen e.g. from the Didascalicus of Alcinous.2 The Middle Platonist worldview was similarly hierarchical and involved intermediary spirits. Between a transcendent God and the visible world was a ladder of intermediary beings 1 Eric Robertson Dodds, Pagan and Christian in the Age of Anxiety: Some Aspects of Reli- gious Experience from Marcus Aurelius to Constantine (Cambridge: University Press, 1965), 38.
