Excerpt from The Hexaemeral Literature: A Study of the Greek and Latin Commentaries on Genesis
An account of the commentaries on the creation story of Genesis might easily be expanded to many times the Size of that here presented. The present study attempts rather to formulate concisely the development of Genesis interpretation, from its antecedents in Greek philosophy through the church writings, to the time of Milton. The question of literary form and the con sideration of any but Latin, Greek, and English works bearing directly upon Genesis have been neglected in order to secure this end. It is the author's hope that the adoption of this plan in treating a class of literature which extends over such a long period of time and which as a whole has never previously been the subject of investigation will excuse the necessary Shortcomings which it involves and increase the general usefulness of the essay.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating history of interpretations of the creation story in Genesis, from its earliest influences in Greek philosophy through the writings of the Church Fathers, culminating in the time of Milton. The author focuses on the development of how these stories were understood, analyzing the ways in which Greek philosophical concepts were woven into theological interpretations of the Biblical account. The book examines how thinkers such as Plato, Aristotle, and the Stoics contributed to the ongoing dialogue about the nature of creation. The author traces the influence of key philosophical concepts, including the idea of a divine pattern, the nature of matter, and the role of reason (logos) in the creation process. The book also sheds light on the intricate interplay between philosophical thought and Christian doctrine, demonstrating how the Church Fathers sought to reconcile their beliefs with the intellectual currents of their time. By tracing this rich intellectual lineage, the book reveals the enduring power of the Genesis creation story and its capacity to inspire both philosophical and theological reflection. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
