Biblical Exegesis in Theodore Of Mopsuestia’s Catechetical Homilies: Integration, Characteristic Features and Sources. KU Leuven
In spite of the fact that Theodore of Mopsuestia's Catechetical Homilies is a well-studied text, the research on the biblical exegesis in these homilies still has to be done. In my dissertation, I will address the influence of Theodore's theology on his exegesis in the Catechetical Homilies and the difference of this exegesis and that of the same passages in his biblical commentaries. Additionally, I will tackle the questions to what extent ...
Patrum uestigia sequens. The transmission and reception of Augustine's exegesis of Eph. 3:17-18 in the Venerable Bede's Collectio ex opusculis sancti Augustini in epistulas Pauli apostoli KU Leuven
© Fordham University 2017. The Collectio ex opusculis sancti Augustini in epistulas Pauli apostoli is an exegetical commentary on the Pauline letters that consists of 457 fragments from the works of Augustine of Hippo. The Collectio was compiled by the Northumbrian scholar Beda Venerabilis (672/73-735), whose biblical commentaries heavily rely on patristic exegesis and theology, and, as such, function as an important mediator between patristic ...
From a Martyrological ‘tabernacula pastorum’ Towards a Geographical ‘in meridie’. Augustine’s Representation and Refutation of the Donatist Exegesis of Sg. 1,6-7 KU Leuven
This article first presents Augustine's exegesis of Sg. 1, 6-7 in the Donatist controversy. This overview is based on his anti- Donatist sermo 46, which is devoted to this passage. Augustine states that the Donatists do not seem to be able to read 'in meridie' of Sg. 1, 6-7 correctly, erring by (i) understanding it geographically as applying it to Donatist Africa, (ii) seeing it as confirming the uniqueness of the Donatist Church, and at the ...
Hylomorphism versus theory of elements in Late Aristotelianism: Péter Pázmány and the sixteenth century exegesis of Meteorologica IV Universiteit Gent
This paper investigates Péter Pázmány’s theory of mixtures from his exegesis of Meteorologica IV, in the context of sixteenth-century scholarship on Aristotle’s Meteorologica.

The exegesis of filiation from Origen to Didymus: a rewritten heritage KU Leuven
In a short polemical work, the Contra Manichæos, in order to refute what he considers to be an ethical consequence of Manichaean metaphysics, in order to fight against the idea that there are beings who are evil by nature, Didymus launches into an explanation which aims to show that evil is a consequence of free will, and attempts to answer, or prevent, a Manichaean reading of the Pauline text: ‘We were by nature (φύσει) children of wrath, just ...
De uoce et uerbo. Augustine’s exegesis of John 1:1-3 and 23 in sermons 288 and 293A auct. (Dolbeau 3) KU Leuven
The distinction between John the voice (uox) and Christ the Word (Verbum) is an important theme in Saint Augustine's sermons on the birthday of John the Baptist (June 24). It is most prominent in his sermons 288 and 293A auct. (Dolbeau 3), which have been dated to 401 and 407, respectively. Through a close-reading of §§ 2-4 of Serin. 288 and §§ 5-10 of Serm. 293A auct. this contribution shows how Augustine first establishes the distinction ...
