The patristic commentary tradition on Matthew begins with Origen's pioneering twenty-five-volume commentary on the First Gospel in the mid-third century. In the Latin-speaking West, where commentaries did not appear until about a century later, the first commentary on Matthew was written by Hilary of Poitiers in the mid-fourth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom that point the First Gospel became one of the texts most frequently commented on in patristic exegesis. Outstanding examples are Jerome's four-volume commentary and the valuable but anonymous and incomplete \u003ci\u003eOpus imperfectum in Matthaeum.\u003c\/i\u003e Then there are the Greek \u003ci\u003ecatena\u003c\/i\u003e fragments derived from commentaries by Theodore of Heraclea, Apollinaris of Laodicea, Theodore of Mopsuestia and Cyril of Alexandria.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ancient homilies also provide ample comment, including John Chrysostom's ninety homilies and Chromatius of Aquileia's fifty-nine homilies on the Gospel of Matthew. In addition, there are various Sunday and feast-day homilies from towering figures such as Augustine and Gregory the Great, as well as other fathers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis rich abundance of patristic comment, much of it presented here in English translation for the first time by editor Manlio Simonetti, provides a bountiful and varied feast of ancient interpretation of the First Gospel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Manlio Simonetti\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0830814698\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780830814695\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e IVP Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/28\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 360\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.88lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.35h x 7.31w x 1.29d","brand":"Manlio Simonetti","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44072832958719,"sku":"9780830814695","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_903a38f8-2ad3-40df-ab38-15b269fca7be.jpg?v=1685444195","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/matthew-14-28-manlio-simonetti-9780830814695","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
