The Odyssey of Homer, the poems of Ovid, the philosophy of Plato, the adventures of Aeneas — these are old friends of the classroom. But many other books, by both familiar and less well-known authors, provide reading as stimulating today as it was two thousand years ago. The witty dialogues of Lucian, the brilliant comedies of Aristophanes, the travels of Strabo, and the botanical discoveries of Theo- phrastus, founder of modern botany, are only samples of the wide range of subjects included in the LOEB CLASSICAL LIBRARY of over 360 titles.

    The Didache of the Apostles1 The teaching2 of the Lord to the Gentiles through3 the twelve apostles The Two Ways and the First Commandment 1.1 There are two ways, one of life and one of death, and there is much difference between the two ways. 2. On the one hand,4 the way of life is this: first, you shall love5 the God who made you; second, [you shall love] your neighbor as yourself6; but all things, if you want them not to happen to you, then see you do not do to another.7 3. Now the teaching of these words is this: Bless those who curse you,8 and pray for your enemies, but fast for those who persecute you9; for what credit is it if you should love those who love you?10 Don’t even the Gentiles do the same?11 But you must love those who hate you and you will not have an enemy.12 4. Abstain from fleshly and bodily cravings. If someone should give you a slap on the right cheek, turn to him the other also,13 and you will be mature14; If someone compels you to go with him one mile, go with him two15; if someone takes away your cloak, give him your tunic also16; if 1 Based on the translation by J.

  • Text of the Gospel of Mark: Lake Revisited
    BABELAO 3 (2014), p. 145-169 + Appendix, p. 171-289 © ABELAO (Belgium) The « Caesarean » Text of the Gospel of Mark: Lake Revisited By Didier Lafleur IRHT - Paris n the field of history and practice of New Testament textual criticism, two major stages were initiated during the last cen- tury by Kirsopp Lake. The first of these was the publication, Iin 19 02, of a survey concerning Codex 1 of the Gospels and its Allies, in the Texts and Studies series (7:3). The second stage was the pub- lication, in 1928, with Robert P. Blake and Silva New, of « The Caesarean Text of the Gospel of Mark » in the Harvard Theological Review (21:4). For the first time, the authors emphasized the exist- ence of such text on the basis of three major pieces of evidence: the Greek manuscripts, the patristic witnesses and the Oriental versions. Since then, the question of the « Caesarean » text-type has been a very disputed matter. It still remains an important tex- tual issue.1 1 This paper was first presented during the Society of Biblical Literature Annual Meeting 2012, Chicago, November 18. 146 D. LAFLEUR Our plan is not to discuss here about the « Caesarean » text and its subsequent developments, but to mainly focus the genesis of Lake’s publication. The survey of his preliminary works will help us to better consider, after a short account of Lake’s biobibliography, the way he followed until the 1928 « Caesarean Text of the Gospel of Mark » and which methodology he used. We will then emphasize one of the three pieces of evidence quot- ed by the authors, the evidence of the Greek manuscripts as de- scribed in their tables of variants.

It is therefore somewhat of a shock to discover from Josephus that, if his evidence be correct, the use of the name Zealot to describe a Jewish sect or party cannot be earlier than A.D. 66. For this reason it seems op- portune to bring together the facts dealing with the Zealots and cognate contemporary movements, and in their light to ask once more what is the meaning of "Simon the Zealot." The usual assumptions1 with regard to the Zealots are that they were the followers of Judas the Gaulonite of Gamala, also called Judas of Galilee, who founded in A.D.

It is therefore perhaps desirable before proceeding to discuss theological education in particular to develop a little more fully the general characteristics of the three forms. The most important characteristic of English educa- tion is that in the English university the period of training in general culture, as distinct from professional instruction, is carried on longer, further, and to a more advanced stage than in any other country. The normally well-educated Englishman lives at a boarding-school, commonly known as a public school, from thirteen to between eighteen and nineteen.

WA3.S, The Harvard Theological Review has been partially endowed by a bequest of the late Miss Mildred Everett, "for the establish- ment and maintenance of an undenominational theological review, to be edited under the direction of the Faculty of the Divinity School of Harvard University. ... I make this provision in order to carry out a plan suggested by my late father, the Rev. Charles Carroll Everett." During the continuance of The New World, Dr. Everett was on its editorial board, and many of his essays, now collected in the volume entitled Essays, Theological and Literary, appeared first in its pages. Sharing his belief in the value of such a theological review, and in devotion to his honored memory, the Faculty of the Harvard Divinity School, of which he was a member from 1869, and its Dean from 1878 until his death in 1900, has accepted the trust, and will strive to make the Review a worthy memorial of his comprehensive thought and catholic spirit.

    INFORMATION TO USERS While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this manuscript, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. For example: • Manuscript pages may have indistinct print. In such cases, the best available copy has been filmed. • Manuscripts may not always be complete. In such cases, a note will indicate that it is not possible to obtain missing pages. • Copyrighted material may have been removed from the manuscript. In such cases, a note will indicate the deletion. Oversize materials (e.g., maps, drawings, and charts) are photographed by sectioning the original, beginning at the upper left-hand corner and continuing from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. Each oversize page is also filmed as one exposure and is available, for an additional charge, as a standard 35mm slide or as a 17”x 23” black and white photographic print. Most photographs reproduce acceptably on positive microfilm or microfiche but lack the clarity on xerographic copies made from the microfilm. For an additional charge, 35mm slides of 6”x 9” black and white photographic prints are available for any photographs or illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography. 8709999 Gainer, Kim Dian PROLEGOMENON TO PIERS PLOWMAN: LATIN VISIONS OF THE OTHERWORLD FROM THE BEGINNINGS TO THE THIRTEENTH CENTURY The Ohio State University Ph.D. 1987 University Microfilms International300 N.

  • History of New Testament Research
    1 The Zenith of Enlightenment Criticism Anglo-American Research in the Gospels In 1939, international exhibitions were held on both American coasts: the New York World’s Fair and the Golden Gate International Exposition in San Francisco. The fair in New York had as its theme “The World of Tomorrow.” As visitors strolled by artificial pools and fountains and marveled at recent technological achievements like television they were moved by nostalgia for the fading Enlightenment. Trying to forget the tragedy of the First World War and the rise of totalitarianism, they embraced again that hope in progress, the uninhibited advance of human civilization. Representatives from sixty- three nations from around the globe came to New York, crossing geographical and political barriers to present their accomplishments in pavilions side by side: a final display of internationalism before the outbreak of the greatest conflagration in human history. Even before the exhibitors had torn down the temporary buildings, Hitler’s troops had marched into Poland. The tomorrow of the new world never dawned. In the period before and immediately after the Second World War, NT research shared the nostalgia for the Enlightenment. The methods of empiricism and rationalism were continued and refined. Like the cooperative efforts of the exhibitions, scholars moved toward consensus. New Testament scholarship became increasingly international, and movements toward synthesis appeared. In Britain and America contributions were made to the study of the Gospels, seen in the work of Taylor and Cadbury. As in other disciplines—atomic physics, for example—NT research continued a development toward greater complexity. The NT scholar is called to become a virtuoso, a sort of Paganini of academia, mastering linguistics, textual analysis, exegetical imagination, historical reconstruction, and constructive theology.
