|  | Hymns on the Unleavened Bread by J. Walters

|  | St. Cyril of Alexandria, A New Testament Exegete by Lois 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 on the nature and work of the Holy Spirit: the indwelling of the Spirit is the beginning of the newness of life. |

The Christology of the Oriental Orthodox Churches has all too often been misunderstood by the various Churches of the Chalcedonian tradition (Catholic, Orthodox, Reformed). Qesis Mebratu Gebru's study of the Christology of the largest of the Oriental Orthodox Churches is thus greatly to be welcomed, for it provides a clear and solidly based presentation of the teaching of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. -- Sebastian P.

The poem consists of twelve homilies (memre) in the 7 + 7 meter, the subjects of which are: 1. On jealousy and the sale of Joseph, 2. Bringing his coat to his father, 3. Going down to Egypt and his sale to Potiphar, 4. His temptation, 5. His imprisonment, 6. His exaltation, 7. His brothers going down to Egypt, 8. Benjamin going down to Egypt, 9. Joseph revealing himself to his brothers, 10. News of Joseph reaching his father, 11. The death of Jacob, and 12. Joseph’s death. An appendix contains a poem on the translation of Joseph’s bones.
