Rethinking the Alexandrian–Antiochene Hermeneutical Antithesis
Twentieth-century scholarship tended to project onto the Antiochenes its own emphasis on history and resistance to allegory. Reassessment in terms of the intellectual context of Late Antiquity is undertaken. The Antiochenes did reject allegory as practised by Origen and his successors, but they did not reject the search for deeper meanings; they were concerned with historia, but that did not mean concern with historicity. Exegetical techniques we…

Candida R. Moss, Divine Bodies
The Garb of Being
This collection explores how the body became a touchstone for late antique religious practice and imagination. When we read the stories and testimonies of late ancient Christians, what different types of bodies stand before us? How do we understand the range of bodily experiences—solitary and social, private and public—that clothed ancient Christians? How can bodily experience help us explore matters of gender, religious identity, class, and ethn…
Divine Discourse
This chapter focuses on the relationship of the Word of God inscribed in Scripture and Word of God incarnate in Christ, both being expressions of God’s revelation and constitutive of the divine oikonomia , and both involving God’s self-accommodation to creaturely limitations. The development of the Christological meaning of Scripture as a whole is traced from second-century debates about the continuing validity of the Jewish Scriptures to the hol…
Ways of Reading Scripture
Frances Young is known for building bridges across theological disciplines. Reflecting the intellectual transformations of some 50-60 years this collection of essays approaches the interpretation of scripture from historical, patristic, postmodern, doctrinal and hermeneutical perspectives.
Exegesis and Theology in Early Christianity
The Fourth Century Reaction against Allegory
Gerald O'Collins, SJ, Saint Augustine on the Resurrection of Christ
Ephraim Radner, Time and the Word
Ways of reading scripture
This volume consists of previously published articles by Frances Young, a scholar of early Christianity, well-known for her work Biblical Exegesis and the Formation of Christian Culture, together with a few newly composed additions. The studies collected here are concerned with the New Testament, but their approach is often not in the modern historico-critical mode. Rather, they bring new insight through being informed by the author's patristic s…
Tom Wright, The Day the Revolution Began
David Rylaarsdam, John Chrysostom on Divine Pedagogy
God's Presence
Apathōs Epathen
Modern Christian writers often appeal to the suffering of Christ as part of a theodicy, but early Christian writers such as Gregory of Nazianzus, Basil the Great, and John Chrysostom did not appeal to Christ’s sufferings as a basis for the consolation of the suffering. One reason is that the concept of apatheia was used to preserve God’s transcendent otherness from his creation. The concept, found in pagan writers as the expression of an ethical …

Carol Harrison, The Art of Listening in the Early Church
God's Presence
In 2011, Frances Young delivered the Bampton Lectures in Oxford to great acclaim. She offered a systematic theology with contemporary coherence, by engaging in conversation with the fathers of the church - those who laid down the parameters of Christian theology and enshrined key concepts in the creeds - and exploring how their teachings can be applied today, despite the differences in our intellectual and ecclesial environments. This book result…
Daniel C. Ullucci, The Christian Rejection of Animal Sacrifice
Wisdom in weakness
The paper explores the discovery of wisdom in weakness, through a shift from anguish over theodicy to an acceptance of challenging circumstances as granting privileged access to the deepest truths of Christianity. It begins with a novelistic narrative of a spiritual journey taken by St Francis of Assissi, which sets the agenda. The topics then covered include: human creatureliness, the wisdom of the cross and the wisdom of apatheia (passionlessne…
Naked or Clothed? Eschatology and the Doctrine of Creation
A Paper on life after death in the early church should probably begin with the underworld: Sheol in the Hebrew Bible, Hades, in Greek mythology, with parallels in ancient Mesopotamia, Egypt and Persia. It should reflect on the universally connected theme of judgment and its importance for theodicy, and address the wide variety of beliefs discernible in the New Testament and its background, especially in the apocalyptic literature. It should consi…

Educating for Excellence
Educating for excellence 1
In the present climate, when future developments are the only thing that can command interest, it may seem rather perverse to turn back to Plato, but in trying to think through current educational problems, I do so unashamedly. One of our problems is the naive assumption that there is an easy practical solution to every problem, and Plato's Socrates it an excellent antidote. Besides this, we soon discover that the very issues that seem to perplex…
The rhetorical schools and their influence on patristic exegesis
To honour Henry Chadwick is to honour the great tradition of British scholarship to which Edwin Hatch belonged. The work of Edwin Hatch was the inspiration of this paper, and it may be regarded as a celebration of the centenary of the publication of his Hibbert lectures of 1888, as well as a tribute to one who, like him, has achieved international acclaim for his erudition.
Christianity
A political movement? In Acts 11.26 we are told that it was in Antioch that the disciples were first called Christianoi. It appears to have been a nickname given by others rather than the name chosen by those thus designated. The term occurs only three times in the New Testament. The form of this nickname, with its -anos ending, is Latinate, and words in Latin with this ending normally refer to members of a political faction, followers of a leade…
The Cambridge History of Early Christian Literature
The writings of the Church Fathers form a distinct body of literature that shaped the early church and built upon the doctrinal foundations of Christianity established within the New Testament. Christian literature in the period c.100–c.400 constitutes one of the most influential textual oeuvres of any religion. Written mainly in Greek, Latin and Syriac, Patristic literature emanated from all parts of the early Christian world and helped to exten…
Classical genres in Christian guise; Christian genres in classical guise
The 'Golden Age of Patristic Literature', the fourth and fifth centuries provides a mass of material which carries weighty literary and theological significance. Christian rhetoricians began to produce a new literature which had classical styles and genres but Christian content. The Constantinian revolution had reinforced the tendencies for Christians to come from the educated literary elites and to adapt classical modes of writing to Christian e…
