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. |
|  | Eastern Crossroads: Essays on Medieval Christian Legacy by Juan Pedro Monferrer-Sala This volume contains papers from the First International Congress on Eastern Christianity held in Córdoba, Spain, November 2005. The encounter of medieval Christian writers with several linguistic traditions through the Middle Ages produced one of the most important branches of Middle Eastern literature. This encounter not only changed the nature of the respective writings throughout time, but also influenced considerably the development of the legacies transmitted by the writers and the scholars of various Eastern Christian churches.
The volume illustrates the strength of Christian cultural life through the Middle Ages under different socio-political situations, including the context of a predominantly Islamic culture.

This volume contains a collection of papers on various aspects of the grammar of Neo-Aramaic, with special attention to the North Eastern Neo-Aramaic dialect group. The papers include descriptions of numerous hitherto undescribed dialects, including those of Tyare, Sat, Calla, Barwar, Karamlesh, Telkepe, Peshabur and those of the Aqra region. Some papers deal with diachronic issues and discuss the relationship of the modern dialects with earlier forms of Aramaic. Particular attention is given by some contributions to syntactic structure and function. The traditions of Neo-Aramaic Bible translation are studied in one paper.
