Antiochene Theōria in the Writings of Theodore of Mopsuestia and Theodoret of Cyrus. Richard J. Perhai - U.S.A. Fortress Press 2015 - 549tr. Paperback 23cm - Emerging scholars .
Biblical scholars have often contrasted the exegesis of the early church fathers from the eastern region and “school” of Syrian Antioch against that of the school of Alexandria. The Antiochenes have often been described as strictly historical-literal exegetes in contrast to the allegorical exegesis of the Alexandrians. Patristic scholars now challenge those stereotypes, some even arguing that few differences existed between the two groups. In this work, Richard J. Perhai agrees that both schools were concerned with a literal and spiritual reading but uncovers rich dictintives in their approach that apply deeply to modern interpretive questions...
