|  | 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. |

|  | Teacher of Holiness: The Holy Spirit in Origen's Commentary on the Epistle to the Romans by Maureen Beyer Moser This book explores the pneumatology of Origen's Commentary on the Epistle to the Romans illustrates the centrality of the Holy Spirit for his theological project. As both God's exitus into the world and humanity's reditus to God, the Spirit forms the crucial link between Origen's doctrine of God and his spiritual anthropology. Origen's images for the Holy Spirit, understood in the context of second century concepts of 'spirit,' convey the intersection of theology and anthropology in his thought. This book explores Origen's understanding of the multiplicity of spirits found in the Scriptures, with particular emphasis on the Holy Spirit as pivotal to God's outreach into the world. |

The Old, the New and the Rewritten is the first book-length study focusing on the Targum of Psalms in more than 50 years. Edwards focuses on the exegetical aspects of the Targum through a detailed study of fifteen psalms and examines how the Targum relates to other Jewish and Christian exegetical traditions that have drawn upon the book of Psalms. The study of these Psalms suggests viewing Targum Psalms as a creative partner in the world of biblical interpretation, as opposed to a compilation of already existing midrashic material. Edwards portrays the Targum as a link between the written and oral Torah that leads its readers on a path to tradition. Extensive comparison is made with all earlier translations of the book of Psalms, as well as other parts of the Targum tradition. This study highlights these related traditions and explains how they came about. The question of using Targum Psalms in New Testament scholarship is discussed, as well as the possibility of any reactionary exegesis to Christian messianic interpretations connected to many Psalms. The book not only illustrates the creative diversity of the Targum, but also highlights the numerous areas of research that await future scholars if this long-neglected part of the Targum tradition is to be fully understood and appreciated. Texts with apparatus and translations of the fifteen Psalms selected for research are included in an appendix.
Timothy Edwards received an MA in Jewish Civilization from the Hebrew University (Jerusalem) and a D.Phil from Oxford University. He has taught at Bristol University and is currently teaching at the Oxford Centre for Hebrew and Jewish Studies.
