  • Baptism – the What, Who and How – Beginning with John the Baptizer
    Baptism – the What, Who and How – Beginning with John the Baptizer Introduction In this study I have relied heavily on the research that has been done by: 1. A. Andrew Das, “Baptized Into God's Family” Milwaukee(NWPH -Impact Series) 1991 2. Dwight Hervey Small, “The Biblical Basis for Infant Baptism” (Baker/Grand Rapids)1968 3. Two of the major resources which Das relies on are: Joachim Jeremias, “Infant Baptism in the First Four Centuries” Transl. David Cairns(Westminster Press/Philadelphia) 1962, Oscar Cullman, “Baptism in the New Testament” J. K. Reid(transl.)(Westminster/Philadelphia) 1950. John the baptizer was to go before our Lord as an Elijah to announce the Messiah's arrival. He was also a transitional person. With John there is the transition to New Testament baptism which then our Lord gave as the risen Savior for His church to carry out. Baptism was not new, as the Jews already practiced it with their converts coming into the church. With John we have a transition from what was already known to the Jews about a baptism to then Jesus' Great Commission. At some point in Jesus' ministry His disciples began to baptize and as time passed they were baptizing more disciples than John. Jn. 4:1 This is also an indication of a transition. John stated that his task was to recede out of the picture as Jesus increased. When John is told “all are going to Him” (Jn. 3:26) it does not bother John at all. The “making and baptizing...disciples” of Jesus' disciples was a continuance of what John had been doing.

  • “In the Syrian Taste”: Crusader Churches in the Latin East As Architectural Expressions of Orthodoxy “Ao Sabor Sírio”
    BLASCO VALLÈS, Almudena, e COSTA, Ricardo da (coord.). Mirabilia 10 A Idade Média e as Cruzadas La Edad Media y las Cruzadas – The Middle Ages and the Crusades Jan-Jun 2010/ISSN 1676-5818 “In the Syrian Taste”: Crusader churches in the Latin East as architectural expressions of orthodoxy “Ao sabor sírio”: as igrejas dos cruzados no Oriente latino como expressões da arquitetura ortodoxa Susan BALDERSTONE 1 Abstract : This paper explores how the architectural expression of orthodoxy in the Eastern churches was transferred to Europe before the Crusades and then reinforced through the Crusaders’ adoption of the triple-apsed east end “in the Syrian Taste” 2 in the Holy Land. Previously, I have shown how it can be deduced from the archaeological remains of churches from the 4th-6th C that early church architecture was influenced by the theological ideas of the period 3. It is proposed that the Eastern orthodox approach to church architecture as adopted by the Crusaders paralleled the evolution of medieval theology in Europe and can be seen as its legitimate expression. Resumo : Este artigo explora o modo como a expressão arquitetônica da ortodoxia nas igrejas orientais foi transferida para a Europa antes das Cruzadas e, em seguida, reforçada através da adoção dos cruzados da abside tripla “de gosto sírio” na Terra Santa. Anteriormente, eu mostrei como isto pôde ser deduzido dos restos arqueológicos de igrejas dos séculos IV-VI e como a arquitetura da igreja primitiva foi influenciada pelas idéias teológicas do período. Proponho que a abordagem do Oriente ortodoxo para a arquitetura da igreja foi adotada pelos cruzados paralelamente à evolução da teologia medieval na Europa, e pode ser visto como uma expressão legítima.

  • Survey of Regent Biblical Literature
    147 SURVEY OF REGENT BIBLICAL LITERATURE. lNTRODUCTION.-In connection with the text of the New Testa­ ment much good work has been done in our time, but probably that which will be most conspicuously monumental is the edition of the V ulgate by Bishop W ordsworth and Vice-Principal White. The editors have the satisfaction of knowing that their work need never be done over again, and that theirs will be the critical edition for all time. With such reward, scholars such as they are compensated even for the enormous labour spent upon this edition. Great credit is due also to the Clarendon Press for the perfect form in which it is issued. The part now issued [Partis Prioris Fasciculus Tertius] contains the Gospel according to St. Luke. The title of the whole is Novum Testamentum Domini Nostri Jesu Ohristi Latine secundum editionem Sancti Hieronymi. A not ignoble rivalry between the Oxford and Cambridge University Presses is productive of great advantage to the public. The Oxford Bible for Teachers, which in previous editions has be­ come so deservedly popular is now issued in a form which should secure for it a still wider acceptance with all English-reading peoples. The Helps to the Study of the Bible are issued in a separate form, but even when bound up with the beautifully printed Bible, they do not swell the volume to an inconvenient size, indeed scarcely to an appreciable extent. But the size does not measure the importance of these Helps. In this edition what­ ever accuracy and whatever completeness are possible have been attained.

  • Survey of Regent Litera1'ure on the New Testament
    465 SURVEY OF REGENT LITERA1'URE ON THE NEW TESTAMENT. TEXTUAL CRITICISM.-All who are interested in New Testa­ ment studies must have hailed with much satisfaction the publication of the first fasciculus of the magnificent work undertaken by Bishop W ordsworth and Mr. White. It is entitled Novum Testamentum Domini Nostri Jesu Ghristi Latine secundum editionem S. Hieronymi ad codicum manu­ scriptorum fidem recensuit, etc. This part or fascicle con­ tains thirty-seven pages of explanatory remarks and the whole of the Gospel of St. Matthew. In the explanatory remarks we have an account of the origin of this under­ taking and of its many hindrances and difficulties; a register and brief identification of the twenty-nine MSS. which the editors have constantly consulted for the gospels, together with some notice of those editions of the Vulgate which have been more or less consulted. In the body of the book the text is printed in columns on the upper part of the page ; across the middle is printed the " Itala " as it stands in the Codex Brixianus, which is supposed to give the nearest approximation to the version used by Jerome in composing the Vulgate; while the lower part of the page is occupied by a record of various readings. Nothing could exceed the beauty of the typography, and no one can fail to recognise the diligence and skill of the editors. "\Vhen complete, the work will be one of the most substantial fruits of English scholarship. The only lack the reader feels is the absence of· material for forming one's own judgment regarding the relative value of the MSS.
