hardcoverCommentary on the Gospel of John
Ancient Christian Texts
by Theodore of Mopsuestia
Translated by Marco Conti
Edited by Joel C. Elowsky
Series edited by Thomas C. Oden and Gerald L. BrayTheodore of Mopsuestia serves as one of the most important exemplars of Antiochene exegesis of his generation.While charges of heterodoxy against Theodore may not be entirely justified, there remains an apparent dualism in his Christology that should be critically viewed in light of the later Chalcedonian formula. With this caution, there still remains much that is valuable for contemporary readers, whether preachers, students or lay people interested in the early church?s understanding of the Gospel of John. Here for the first time is a complete English translation of this valuable work, ably translated by Marco Conti and edited by Joel C. Elowsky.
