SUGGESTION/QUESTION: Patristric Bible Interpretation in the Oriental Orthodox Church (Hi Gabe)
I've been searching unsuccessfully tonight for resources on Bible Interpretation in the Oriental Church. I've found references to unpublished dissertation (one by a Dominican that I might be able to lay my hands on at a reasonable cost) and the following items:
Lucas Van Rompay's, 'Between the School and the Monk’s Cell: The Syriac Old Testament Commentary Tradition', in Bas ter Haar Romeny (ed.), The Peshitta: Its Use in Literature and Liturgy. Papers Read at the Third Peshitta Symposium (Monographs of the Peshitta Institute Leiden 15; Leiden: Brill, 2006).
van Rompay, L., "The Christian Syriac Tradition of Interpretation," in: M. Sæbø (ed.), Hebrew Bible / Old Testament: The History ofInterpretation. Vol. I: From the Beginnings to the Middle Ages (Until 1300). Part 1: Antiquity (Göttingen: Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 1996), 612-641.
———, "Development of Biblical Interpretation in the Syrian Churches of the Middle Ages," in: M. Sæbø (ed.), Hebrew Bible / Old Testament: The History of Its Interpretation. Vol. I: From the Beginnings to the
Middle Ages (Until 1300). Part 2: The Middle Ages (Göttingen:Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 2000), 559-577.
Kannengiesser, C., "Syriac Christian Literature," in: Idem, Handbook of Patristic Exegesis: The Bible in Ancient Christianity. 2 vols. (The Bible in Ancient Christianity 1; Leiden / Boston: Brill, 2004), vol. 2, 1377-1446.
Isn't the plan supposed to be that Logos provides the resources before I need them?
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

Thanks for your humour, MJ! *smile* Wasn't it Hannibal who said, "I love it when a plan comes together!"???MJ. Smith said:Isn't the plan supposed to be that Logos provides the resources before I need them?
I'm not sure that's what Bob had in mind when he (with great support, I think!) began Logos; however, it's a good plan for now, eh???
Great thought! Thank you!
Peace!
You probably shouldn't bother watching this ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GL6LH6ufhM
Philippians 4: 4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. 5 Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand..........

I'll see what I can do on these and other Oriental resources. There will definitely be an effort to get as many Oriental works as possible, and even in original languages.
