Recommendations on Chrysostom Works

Kevin Maples

I'm doing research on the following sermons from Chrysostom:

John Chrysostom, Matthew 1:22-23

John Chrysostom, Matthew 5:27-28

John Chrysostom, Matthew 5:38-40

John Chrysostom, Matthew 13:34-35

John Chrysostom, Matthew 21:12-13

John Chrysostom, Matthew 27:45-48

John Chrysostom, Acts 15:13,15

John Chrysostom, Romans 3:9-18

John Chrysostom, Romans 4:23

John Chrysostom, 1 Cor. 1:18-20

John Chrysostom, 1 Cor. 3:18-19

John Chrysostom, Ephesians 6:1-3

My interest is on Chrysostom's preaching of New Testament texts that quote the Old Testament.

Can anyone recommend resources?

I am already aware of http://www.logos.com/product/25031/john-chrysostom-collection#005 and http://www.logos.com/product/29190/saint-chrysostom-and-saint-augustine

I also have the Church Fathers in Logos.

Yes, great recommendation. I have it and have read it. I forgot to list it in my first post. Thanks MJ.

May be some overlap with what you already have ... Early Church Fathers, Volumes 11, 12, and 13.

Thanks Steve. I meant the Early Church Fathers in my first post when I wrote church fathers. Sorry for not being clear. Thanks for the input.

Okay since we're not getting many suggestions directly related, here are three that have some overlap with what you're seeking:

The Heavenly Trumpet: John Chrysostom and the Art of Pauline Interpretation by Margaret M. Mitchell

John Chrysostom and the Jews : Rhetoric and Reality in the Late 4th Century by Robert Louis Wilken

Divine Rhetoric: The Sermon on the Mount As Message and As Model in Augustine, Chrysostom, and Luther by Jaroslav Jan Pelikan

I'm doing research on the following sermons from Chrysostom:

I don't have any resources to suggest, but you could obviously search Logos for links to those sermons. Here's a link that does that.

In my library there are very few links that are returned (apart from ACCS), but you may find that some of those results prove useful to you.

Mark, thanks so much for link. How did you build it?

For example: <Chrysostom ~ Homilies on the Gospel of St. Matthew 88> How did you know what syntax to use to search for that sermon?

For example: <Chrysostom ~ Homilies on the Gospel of St. Matthew 88> How did you know what syntax to use to search for that sermon?

There are a few different ways, but this is probably the easiest:

Open Chrysostom and navigate to the correct sermon.
Right-click anywhere in the text and choose the correct Reference from the right side of the menu (you'll probably three three references, but only one is the Works of John Chrysostom datatype).
Choose Search Entire Library from the lefthand side of the menu.
That will bring up a search that will probably look something like this: <Chrysostom = Homilies on the Gospel of St. Matthew 88.1>. That's wrong in two ways:

The 88.1 is too specific. We just want 88, so we can delete the .1.
The equals sign is also two specific. To match, the reference would need to be exactly to Homily 88, whereas you probably also want to include broader references, such as those to Homilies 88-89 or 88.2. Changing the equals sign to a tilde (= to ~) will mean those broader references are included.
