The episode is retold at some length by both Josephus (Ant. 4.159-164) and Philo (Mos. 1.305-318). Our study compares their two versions both with the biblical source and with each other. From this double comparison it emerges that the Josephan and Philonic retellings share a number of common features, e.g., both eliminate the Bible's explicit mentions of God's role in the proceedings, while likewise highlighting the military aspect of the happening. At the same time, their renderings differ in many other respects, Josephus, for instance, presenting a more reduced account, Philo a considerably more expansive one.","PeriodicalId":42509,"journal":{"name":"Ephemerides Theologicae Lovanienses","volume":"17 1","pages":"81-106"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2007-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90892017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By asking questions about the relationship of the recipient of the letter to the parties involved, why Innocent intervened, and the civil implications of a spousal abduction by a foreign enemy we gain insight into a crucial stage of the Christianisation of marriage. It is argued that Innocent wrote to Probus probably because he was personally connected with the couple, that Innocent rejected the Roman law on the dissolution of marriage due to abduction and enslavement, and that his decision, which had only ecclesial and not civil effect, marks an important moment in church-state relations. The reference to divorce should be taken as a simple statement that this Roman practice was not relevant here as it was not a case of the Matthean exception.","PeriodicalId":42509,"journal":{"name":"Ephemerides Theologicae Lovanienses","volume":"25 1","pages":"107-121"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2007-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73857180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Careful examination of the ways in which ancient authors reproduced written sources, however, fails to demonstrate that authors had a consistent pattern of source-replication; in fact high variability is well attested in Diodorus' reproduction of Ephoros. The phenomenon of high variability in the reproduction of sources must be more carefully situated in the context of ancient scribal and rhetorical techniques rather than a facile appeal to 'oral tradition'.","PeriodicalId":42509,"journal":{"name":"Ephemerides Theologicae Lovanienses","volume":"23 1","pages":"53-80"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2007-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80544452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
{"title":"LebēŠ pagrā' as the Language of Incarnation in the Demonstrations of Aphrahat the Persian Sage","authors":"Oleh Shchuryk","doi":"10.2143/ETL.83.4.2025348","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2143/ETL.83.4.2025348","url":null,"abstract":"One of the significant Christological themes elaborated by Aphrahat in his 23 Demonstrations is the mystery of Christ's l e bēS pagrd', namely, his 'putting on a body'. The article focuses on the analysis of selected passages from the Demonstrations, which deal with this particular issue. After a brief overview of the Christological patterns used by Aphrahat in his Treatises, it focuses on the peculiarities of Aphrahat's language, which does not depend on the Greek tradition. For example, when he talks about Christ's 'coming to the world', this rather points to influence from early Syriac Christologies, such as: the 'Acts of Thomas' and 'Odes of Solomon'. From the perspective of the \"two-Adams\" typology, the article approaches the soteriological dimension of Christ's l e bēS pagrā'. Christ is the second Adam, who 'puts on a body'. Christ's incarnation, not only restores humankind to the glorious pre-fall status, which was lost by the first Adam, but also, as S. Brock explains, allows humankind to put on God and attain the status of divinity. This was the intention of God's creation in the beginning. This interpretation cannot be fully appreciated without the crucial notion of k e yānā' which means 'nature', 'reality', 'existence'. This term sheds more light on Aphrahat's notion of Christ's putting on a body'. Furthermore, passages from the Demonstration's, 'Concerning the Cluster', reveals that any docetic suspicions, with respect to Aphrahat's doctrine of Christ's l e bēS pagrā', are unfounded. In conclusion, this article attempts to uncover the pedagogical aspects of Christ's 'dressing in the human body'. Christ, who not only puts on the corruptible and feeble body, but also elevates it to glory and honor, stands as the perfect model for the human being to follow in order to enter the divine realm.","PeriodicalId":42509,"journal":{"name":"Ephemerides Theologicae Lovanienses","volume":"149 37","pages":"419-444"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2007-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2143/ETL.83.4.2025348","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72444143","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Independent of who may have been the protagonist of the hymn preserved in 4Q491, once the hymn was inserted in the collection of the Hodayot , the \"I\" was automatically identified with the Teacher of Righteousness, and through the collective recitation of his words each member of the Community could identify with him.
