Download or read book Clement and the Early Church of Rome written by Rev Thomas J Herron and published by Emmaus Road Publishing. This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clement of Rome's First Epistle to the Corinthians, one of the very few Christian texts having survived from the first century, is a supremely valuable historical document. Modern scholars affirm as much, although many have called into question whether Clement was a direct disciple of Sts. Peter and Paul, arguing instead that he lived and wrote many decades after the martyrdom of the apostles. In the groundbreaking Clement and the Early Church of Rome: On the Dating of Clement's First Epistle to the Corinthians, Msgr. Thomas J. Herron presents his rigorously researched conclusions and sketches out the significance of his findings. Clement's Epistle stands as an early example of the exercise of hierarchical--and Roman--authority in the Church. It is a disciplinary letter addressed with confident authority to a distant Church. About the Author Msgr. Thomas J. Herron served for many years as an official of the Vatican Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. He was the English-language secretary for Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, who later became Pope Benedict XVI. Msgr. Herron held a doctorate in biblical theology from the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome. Later in life, he taught at St. Charles Borromeo Seminary and served as a pastor in Philadelphia. He died of pancreatic cancer in 2004. Endorsements "His methods are rigorous. His writing is clear and unflinchingly honest. His tone is modest. Nevertheless, his conclusions are stunning. He argues very persuasively for the earlier dates; and then he proceeds to sketch out the significance of the early dating for history, theology, and apologetics. Did he succeed? Well, his work has been cited as authoritative by scholars as illustrious as Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger. And His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI is certainly not alone." --Scott Hahn, Bestselling Author and Popular Speaker "I am dependent . . . upon the brilliant analysis by Thomas J. Herron." --Dr. Clayton Jefford, St. Meinrad School of Theology, author of The Apostolic Fathers and the New Testament

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pope Clement I (fl. 96), also known as Saint Clement of Rome (in Latin, Clemens Romanus), is listed from an early date as a Bishop of Rome. He was the first Apostolic Father of the Church. Few details are known about Clement's life. According to Tertullian, Clement was consecrated by Saint Peter, and he is known to have been a leading member of the church in Rome in the late 1st century. Early church lists place him as the second or third bishop of Rome after Saint Peter. Clement's only genuine extant writing is his letter, 1 Clement (c. 96), to the church at Corinth, in response to a dispute in which certain presbyters of the Corinthian church had been deposed

Download or read book The Epistle of Clement of Rome written by Giuseppe Guarino and published by . This book was released on 2023-05-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Epistle of Clement belongs to the so called Apostolic Fathers, a collection of writings by Christian authors who lived in the first and second centuries AD. They were so named because of their close connection to the apostles of Jesus Christ and their followers. The writings of the Apostolic Fathers provide a valuable insight into the beliefs, practices, and structure of the early Christian church, and are considered an important resource for understanding the development of Christian thought and theology. The Epistle of Clement of Rome, also known as First Clement, is the first I present in this series. It is perhaps one of the oldest Christian writing outside the New Testament. Reading such an early Christian document is a blessing that every believer should experience. This is why this edition is not meant for scholars, but the average Bible reader.

Book excerpt: Das Schreiben der romischen Kirche an die korinthische aus der Zeit Domitians, Harnack's 'farewell gift' on 1 Clement to his students, was formative for several decades after its publication, and remains an influential work even in contemporary discussions of this ancient letter. Harnack contends that 1 Clement is the most important witness to early Christianity, and that a close study of this work will equip the reader better to understand its later developments. Now translated into English for the first time, it is presented alongside four influential essays pertaining to 1 Clement that Harnack wrote throughout his career, as well as a historical introduction and assessment of Harnack's work by Larry Welborn.

Download or read book Judaism and Christianity in First-Century Rome written by Karl P. Donfried and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2003-12-22 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rome, as the center of the first-century world, was home to numerous ethnic groups, among which were both Jews and Christians. The dealings of the Roman government with these two groups, and their dealings with each other, are the focus of this engaging book. Peter Richardson shows that inscriptions expand considerably our knowledge about synagogues in Rome. L. Michael White discusses what the archeological epigraphic evidence reveals about the synagogue and society of Ostia. Graydon F. Snyder explores the them of inculturation, looking closely at the level of interaction of Jews with non-Jews in Rome and of Christians with Roman culture. Leonard Victor Rutgers examines the inconsistent nature of Rome's legal policies toward the Jews. Rudolf Braendle and Ekkehard W. Stegemann detail the formation of the first Christian congregations already present. James S. Jeffers describes the family life of Jews and Christians in Rome. Carolyn Osiek discusses, from an insightful and unique perspective, the social character of Roman Christianity. James C. Walters considers the evolving relations between Christians and non-Christian Jews in Rome and how their interactions were affected by Roman intervention. William L. Lane traces the continuities and discontinuities in Roman Christianity in the period from Nero to Nerva. Finally, Chrys C. Caragounis, finding clues in Romans and '1 Clement', challenges much of the consensus concerning the social situation of Roman Christianity. Based on the latest biblical and historical scholarship and archaeological evidence, this volume will be a valuable resource for students of first-century Judaism and Christianity.

Download or read book The Clementine Homilies written by Pope Clement I and published by . This book was released on 1870 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Homilies of Pope Clement I are classic early Christian writings, vividly depicting the philosophical and religious discussions of the early church fathers. This lengthy and elaborate narrative is in the format of an address given in the voice of Clement I to the James the Just, the Bishop of Jerusalem in the mid-1st century. The topics range between belief in the Lord God, the nature and existence of immortality, and various religious questions and philosophic ideas. Later, we hear of Clement's activities spanning Rome, Palestine, Egypt and elsewhere, the spiritual events he officiated, and sermons he delivered to early believers. Modern theologians and scholars do not generally consider the Clementine Homilies to have been penned by Pope Clement I (c. 35 - 99 AD) himself. Instead, they are attributed to a "Pseudo-Clement" who lived sometime between the 2nd and 4th centuries A.D. Nevertheless, the works are valuable both as a manner of biographical study, and for their insight into early Christian history and culture. A multitude of references to important events which combined depict an evolution of the church from small, localized groups of adherents into an organized and cohesive whole remains of great interest.
