Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pelagian controversy - whether man is saved through predestination or by his own free will - has proved one of the most enduring and fiercely contended issues of the Christian church, and has secured Pelagius a lasting place within its history. Few of Pelagius' writings, however, have been preserved, and until recently none was available in English translation. This volume presents Pelagius' commentary on Paul's Letter to the Romans for the first time in English. The commentary, one of thirteen on the Pauline Epistles, dates from the time when Pelagius was active in Rome, before he became embroiled in controversy. But already there are adumbrations of the later debate and signs of different currents of thought in Italy and beyond. In his introduction Theodore de Bruyn discusses the context in which Pelagius wrote the commentary and the issues which shaped his interpretation of Romans. He also takes up questions about the edition of the commentary. The translation is annotated with references to Pelagius' contemporaries. A new recension of Pelagius' text of Romans is presented in an appendix.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new translation for scholars and students of biblical interpretation and ancient Christianity The ancient writer dubbed Ambrosiaster was a pioneer in the revival of interest in the Pauline Epistles in the later fourth century. He was read by Latin writers, including Pelagius and Augustine, and his writings, passed on pseudonymously, had a long afterlife in the biblical commentaries, theological treatises, and canonical literature of the medieval and the early modern periods. In addition to his importance as an interpreter of scripture, Ambrosiaster provides unique perspectives on many facets of Christian life in Rome, from the emergence of clerical celibacy to the development of liturgical practices to the subordination of women. Features An up-to-date overview of what is known about Ambrosiaster, the transmission of his commentary on the Pauline Epistles, his exegetical method, his theological orientation, and aspects of Christianity in Rome in the fourth century A scholarly translation of the final version of the commentary, along with notes that identify significant variants from prior versions of the commentary Bibliography thatincludes a comprehensive list of the scholarly literature on Ambrosiaster

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A heretic is someone who disagrees with established wisdom. The word "dogma" is derived from the Greek word for "belief" or "opinion." And someone who is dogmatic tries to impose his opinion of "true belief" on others, labeling the other beliefs "only myth," and therefore not true. But a myth is a story to illustrate a belief. This book shows that every culture has a set of spiritual stories, each reflecting the culture of those who believe. Spiritually, we are climbing the same mountain; how we see the top depends on where we come from.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These individually distinct yet interrelated essays offer grounds for a revised perspective on the figure of Pelagius as a controversialist and theologian of the late fourth and early fifth centuries. Three of its chapters proceed from the conviction that much of interest can be discovered about both the life and the thought of Pelagius if Jerome, as a source of information, is taken much more seriously than has been the case in scholarly work heretofore. It was Jerome against whom Pelagius wrote his two chief controversial treatises, and it is therefore of importance to discover the nature and grounds of the antagonism between these two figures. When the sources are approached in this light, three conclusions emerge: that Pelagius and Jerome were together involved in a genuine revival of the Origenist controversy, with Pelagius making an entirely justifiable point against his adversary; that Pelagius first comes into historical view as a critic of Jerome's ascetic teaching on marriage; and that an important source of Pelagius' thought is the much-neglected work The Sentences of Sextus. A fourth chapter argues that Augustine first took up serious polemic against Pelagius when the African doctor saw the British monk as attempting to support his theology by appeal to the authority of Catholic authors, eminent among whom was Augustine himself. The argument is also advanced that Pelagius could appeal with some real justice to an early writing of Augustine, a writing which the Bishop of Hippo in later life refused to see its original context.A fifth chapter presents a more comprehensive summary of Pelagius's theology than has yet appeared. Throughout, the author queries what revision in the notion of "orthodoxy" is required by honest historical investigation.

This book was released on 1997-03-19 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plummer's concern is to let the message of Philippians speak for itself, often making reference to the original language when greater insight into the meaning of the passage can be gained. Plummer provides an excellent balance between exegesis and exposition, making this book a valuable tool for the study of Paul's letter to the Philippians.
