Church Fathers in Greek?

Kristin

I own a bunch of Church Fathers stuff which I greatly appreciate. However, it is entirely in English. Is there a Greek parallel resource available? I can't seem to find it if there is.

Thanks, and below is the resource in question.

The easy way is to use something like https://patrologiagraeca.org/patrologia/en/tables-of-contents-of-patrologia-graeca/64-table-of-contents-volume-6-of-patrologia-graeca.html (searching for Justin Martyr).

However, since Patrologia is sort of a stack of collected manuscripts, you'd need to see if it has the one you want.

Here's the TOCs for volume 6 (commentary is in latin; text in greek):

And volume 6 for latin (more Justin):

Note that the commentary volume includes an index:

There's miscellaneous volumes like Clement of Alexandria in greek. Catch as catch can. And of course, the Apostolic Fathers ones (Holmes, Lake, Lightfoot and Brannon). But the major source is https://www.logos.com/product/16530/patrologiae-cursus-completus-series-graeca-part-1?queryId=03a002b6702a9ba1c6d9c404b47a4bbf And much of Patrologiae is still prepub and going nowhere. But I like it, often showing up unexpectedly in word studies, and multi-book displays. It's partially morph-tagged (meaning most words tagged, unless they're unusual). There's also latin (mainly African).

Example:

And a list (I renamed them so I could see what's inside, sort of):

Hi @DMB,

Thanks for your help with the link and screenshot. :)

I was looking around in the set trying to find Justin Martyr's First Apology. Is there a specific resource in that set which has this? The whole set is sort of pricy, so I am thinking of just getting that specific thing about Justin if it is part of it, but I kind of think it isn't. Is that correct?

Hi @DMB,

Thank you so much for the contexts link, and yes, that is exactly what I need. :) I guess I will go ahead and get vol. 6 of the set. Thank you again!

Logos needs to get on with it and release Migne at a steady rate - consider it a loss-leader to corner the market.

Remember there's 3 separate books (vol 6), depending on what you want.

An alternative to PG for Justin might be https://www.logos.com/product/46605/justin-martyrs-apologies-greek-text-with-notes?queryId=02f5b60948b50f69fd8a5d666949ddd1 contained in https://www.logos.com/product/9435/the-major-works-of-justin-martyr-in-greek (note that PG is a citable source for academic purposes, that work probably not). This is unfortunately not findable in the store or the library when looking for Greek language resources, since it is mis-tagged as English in both places.

For your Logos proficiency: I actually didn't search the store first for this, but Logos. The Early Church Fathers are usually well-served in terms of tagging with their respective datatype, thus starting from the set you own I went to Justin's Apology, selected right click, reference and then Power Lookup. This will give me all resources in my library that are tagged with 1 Apology 1, so I can quickly scroll down to identify Greek language ones.

This helps to identify resources I may own without actively knowing I ever bought them (that little treasure is e.g. contained in the Logos 9 Orthodox Silver library)
