|  | St. Cyril of Alexandria, A New Testament Exegete by Lois M. Farag This study portrays Cyril of Alexandria as exegete and theologian through an examination of his Commentary on the Gospel John. It begins with an attempt to place Cyril and his commentary within their context. This work argues that Cyril wrote his Commentary on the Gospel of John early in his writing career, almost a decade before becoming bishop. Cyril’s commentary on the Johannine Gospel reveals his exegetical method and his strong Trinitarian theology. The commentary also focuses the nature and work of the Holy Spirit: the indwelling of the Spirit is the beginning of the newness of life. |

Beginning with the difficult question of the nature of God as creator and judge, Bussell moves toward the classic question of theodicy: how does the creator and judge accord with the origin of evil? To address this question he introduces the Ante-Nicene writers Lactantius and the author of the Pseudo-Clementine literature. Entering into dialogue with these ancient authors, particularly the Clementine homilies, he points out that these ancient authorities tend toward the explanation that human responsibility must be brought to bear on this issue.
Frederick William Bussell (1862-1944) was a Fellow of Brasenose College Oxford. His research interest was the history of religious and philosophical ideas.
