Titre : Called by Name' Subtitle: Anonymity and Naming in the Johannine Tradition Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Judith M. Lieu, Auteur Année de publication : 2025 Article en page(s) : Pages: 3-26 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : From the perspective of narrative criticism, a marked characteristic of John’s Gospel is the naming of characters and the detailed attention paid to narratives in which they feature. Yet the Gospel makes equal use of the narratological potential of anonymous characters, not least in the ways they can transcend the particularity of their narratives. Drawing on recent studies of naming and anonymity in classical literature, this paper explores how both features function in John’s Gospel, most notably in the presentation of 'the mother of Jesus' and 'the disciple whom Jesus loved'. The changing narrative role of the latter and the other anonymous voices in chapter 21 challenge the reader’s expectation of the authority and reliability of the witness in the written text. The deliberate adoption of anonymity is equally characteristic of 2 John and of 1 John and must be seen as a distinctive characteristic of the Johannine tradition and its presentation of the location of authority.

Titre : Exegesis Supporting Metaphysics Eusebius of Caesarea's Use of Prosōpon and its Hypostatic Associations Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : MAGREE, Michael C., Auteur Année de publication : 2025 Article en page(s) : pp 27 - 42 - Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : The Greek word prosōpon, or 'person', is often associated with ancient modalist theologies that minimize the distinction between Father, Son, and Spirit. Eusebius of Caesarea, in his Ecclesiastical Theology, is arguing against modalism but also using prosōpon freely to designate Father and Son as subsistently distinct. The explanation of this is rooted in agent-identification exegesis, defined for the first time in this article. Prosōpon expands its range, from designating only distinct speakers (in prosopological exegesis) to designating distinct agents. Distinct agency, for Eusebius, gives an exegetical grounding for claiming the Father and Son as distinct hypostases. Eusebius offers a method of understanding 'person' that shows how it might give an exegetical grounding for a description of reciprocal activity in the Trinity.

Titre : Jerome's Principles of Biblical Translation in the Context of Classical and Sacred Ideals Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Michael Graves, Auteur Année de publication : 2025 Article en page(s) : pp 43 - 72 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Jerome cites classical authors as models for his non-literal practice of translation, and yet he also states in some places that Scripture must be rendered literally. In reality, however, neither his appeal to classical translation theory nor his approach to rendering Scripture is straightforward. Against the background of classical thinking about translation and models for translating sacred texts in Late Antiquity, five principles, forged out of both traditions, emerge as fundamental to Jerome’s translation theory: (1) In translating a text, the sense of the original should not be damaged. (2) Traditional renderings should be retained where possible. (3) An effective translator should respect the particular idioms of each language. (4) One need not translate Scripture word for word, when other factors require a less literal translation. (5) A translation should conform to basic standards in the receptor language with respect to grammatical rules, naturalness of expression, and clarity.

Titre : The Emperor Julian and Cyril of Alexandria on Human Nature, Ethnicity, and Moral Progress Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Matthew R. Crawford, Auteur Année de publication : 2025 Article en page(s) : pp 73 - 102 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : In his anti-Christian treatise Against the Galileans, the emperor Julian objected to the Hebrew Bible’s claim that Israel was God’s special possession and, in response, elaborated a sophisticated philosophy of ethnicity that explained all aspects of diversity in the human species as resulting from a complex causal network in which patron deities operated in concert with natural forces to produce distinct 'natures' for each people group, which in turn influenced their laws, culture, and intellectual achievements. In Julian’s view, only if such divine causes can be identified for all aspects of one’s identity and nature could the universal Craftsman be said to have providentially cared for all nations of the earth. This pairing of the Hippocratic tradition of geographic determinism with Neoplatonic theology in Julian’s theory resulted in the most robustly deterministic account of ethnic hierarchy in antiquity. When he came to write his rebuttal of Julian’s treatise several decades later, Cyril of Alexandria formulated a moral critique of the emperor’s philosophical proposal, arguing that, if humans have different natures that constrain their behavior, this can only mean that some have been endowed with a natural defect. In place of Julian’s philosophy of ethnicity, Cyril therefore proposed a theology of human equality according to which all humanity had a common nature, deriving from a single Creator, and therefore an equivalent capacity for pursuing virtue. Contingent aspects of human identity such as one’s upbringing, as well as ethnic traits like skin color and language, thus had no bearing upon a person’s moral capabilities. The present article maps the contours of this debate between Julian and Cyril and traces its origins in the account of human diversity set forth in Origen’s Against Celsus.

Titre : The Interpretation of the Seven Trumpets in Oecumenius' Commentary on the Apocalypse Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : CARDOZO MINDIOLA, Cristian, Auteur Année de publication : 2025 Article en page(s) : pp 103 - 129 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Among the ecclesiological and Christological readings of the seven trumpets in early Christianity, Oecumenius’ exegesis of this pericope stands out. He posits that the trumpets signal the eschatological events that must ensue after the second coming of Christ, particularly the punishment of sinners and the renewal of the earth. This article explores Oecumenius’ exegesis and explains that he conceives the first, fifth, and sixth trumpets as symbols of the punishment of sinners and the second, third, and fourth trumpets as depictions of the renewal of the earth. Moreover, this article argues that this unique interpretation of the trumpets stems from Oecumenius’ incarnational reading of the Apocalypse. Since he understands the seventh seal as the second coming, the trumpets must represent events at or after this event due to their subsequent placement in Revelation. Furthermore, Oecumenius reads intertextually each trumpet with a text that was long established in early Christianity as a proof text of either the punishment of sinners or the renewal of the earth, reading the meaning of the latter into the former. Therefore, what Oecumenius’ original reading of Revelation 8-9 achieves is that the trumpets are added to the list of biblical testimonia that witness to the events that must happen at the eschaton.

Titre : Transatlantische Austauschprozesse zwischen dem deutschsprachigen und dem US-amerikanischen Katholizismus Von der Kolonialzeit bis zum Ersten Weltkrieg Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Benjamin Dahlke, Auteur Année de publication : 2025 Article en page(s) : pp 131 - 161 Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Given the enormous importance of US-European relations after 1945, the cultural exchange across the Atlantic has deserved some attention, especially with respect to the German-speaking lands. However, the Catholic component of this exchange has not been studied in detail yet. This article aims at highlighting several aspects, which deserve further research. From the Colonial times onwards up until World War I, German and American Catholicism have been entangled to a large extent.
