Produktbeschreibung
In 'Eight Homilies Against the Jews' by John Chrysostom, the author presents a series of theological discourses denouncing the Jewish community, reflecting the anti-Semitic views prevalent in the Byzantine Empire during the 4th century. Chrysostom's literary style is characterized by powerful rhetoric and impassioned arguments, drawing from biblical scripture to condemn the Jews for their perceived rejection of Christ. The homilies are a reflection of the theological debates and tensions that existed between Christianity and Judaism in the early Christian era. Despite the controversial nature of the content, the text provides valuable insights into the religious rhetoric of the time and the development of Christian anti-Judaism. Chrysostom's work serves as a historical document that sheds light on the complexities of interfaith relations in the ancient world.

Autorenporträt
John Chrysostom (c. 349 - 407 AD), born in Antioch, is one of the most influential Early Church Fathers recognized for his eloquence in preaching and public speaking. Known for his denunciatory sermons, which earned him the nickname 'Chrysostomos' meaning 'golden-mouthed' in Greek, he was famous for his articulate and impassioned oratory. His considerable body of work, including sermons, treatises, and epistles, profoundly shaped Christian theology, especially within the Byzantine tradition. Among his extensive writings, 'Eight Homilies Against the Jews' stands out as a contentious work, reflecting the tense interfaith dynamics of his time. These homilies, delivered in Antioch in the late 4th century, have been both influential and controversial, critiqued for their vehement rhetoric against Jewish religious practices and communities, which some scholars argue contributed to the development of Christian anti-Semitism. Despite this aspect of his legacy, Chrysostom is also remembered for his contributions to the development of Christian doctrine, particularly regarding the Divine Liturgy and his steadfast stance against ecclesiastic corruption and the opulent lifestyles of the secular and ecclesiastical elite. Revered as a saint in Eastern Orthodoxy, Catholicism, and Anglicanism, John Chrysostom's works continue to be studied for their theological significance and historical impact on the Christian tradition.
