Pages : 379
Book Description
The dilemma of early Christology, the author observes, is found in the early Christian claims to have seen the Lord and beheld his glory - expressions that in early Judaism would have pointed unequivocally to visions of Israel's God. He also examines the phenomenon of kyriocentric visions in Second Temple Judaism.

Theology and Poetry in Early Byzantium
Author: Sarah Gador-Whyte
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108210848
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 249
Book Description
Theology and Poetry in Early Byzantium examines the kontakia and thought-world of Romanos the Melodist, the sixth-century hymnographer whose vibrant and engaging compositions had a far-reaching influence in the history of Byzantine liturgy. His compositions bring biblical narratives to life through dialogue, encourage a level of participation unparalleled in homiletics and push the boundaries of liturgical expression of theology. This book provides an original analysis of Romanos' poetry, drawing attention to the coherence of his theology and the performative nature of his rhetoric. The main theological themes which emerge encourage the congregation to enact the life of Christ and anticipate the new creation: restoration of humanity to God, re-creation in the incarnation and life of Christ, and liturgical participation and transformation in that life. By analysing the rhetorical performance of theology in the kontakia, the book provides new insights into religious practice in late antiquity.

Commentary of Theodore of Mopsuestia on the Lord's Prayer and on the Sacraments of Baptism and the Eucharist
Author: Theodore (Bishop of Mopsuestia)
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781593338305
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The Commentary of Theodore of Mopsuestia on the Lord's Prayer and on the Sacraments of Baptism and the Eucharist is an important witness to the development of Christianity. Theodore (c. 350-428) was clearly the most important biblical scholar of his age. In a series of six homilies Theodore here addresses the Lord's Prayer as a springboard to discuss what actually constitutes prayer. His homilies on the sacraments are essential witnesses to the historical development of these sacraments. His work here is basically a commentary on the text of the liturgy, an awareness of the centrality of the sacraments to the life of the church in his age.
