Jerome (Eusebius Sophronius Hieronymus), ca. 345–420, of Stridon, Dalmatia, son of Christian parents, at Rome listened to rhetoricians, legal advocates, and philosophers, and in 360 was baptized by Pope Liberius. He traveled widely in Gaul and in Asia Minor; and turned in the years 373–379 to hermetic life in Syria. Ordained presbyter at Antioch in 379 he went to Constantinople, met Gregory of Nazianzus and advanced greatly in scholarship. He was called to Rome in 382 to help Pope Damasus, at whose suggestion he began his revision of the Old Latin translation of the Bible (which came to form the core of the Vulgate version). Meanwhile he taught scripture and Hebrew and monastic living to Roman women. Wrongly suspected of luxurious habits, he left Rome (now under Pope Siricius) in 385, toured Palestine, visited Egypt, and then settled in Bethlehem, presiding over a monastery and (with help) translating the Old Testament from Hebrew. About 394 he met Augustine. He died on 30 September 420.  Jerome’s letters constitute one of the most notable collections in Latin literature. They are an essential source for our knowledge of Christian life in the fourth–fifth centuries; they also provide insight into one of the most striking and complex personalities of the time. Seven of the eighteen letters in this selection deal with a primary interest of Jerome’s: the morals and proper role of women. The most famous letter here fervently extols virginity.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50256109404433,"sku":"CIN0674992881G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50278780961041,"sku":"CIN0674992881A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50922079715601,"sku":"CIN0674992881VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52798171021585,"sku":"GOR008958703","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":53603896492305,"sku":"NGR9780674992887","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0674992881.jpg?v=1778579249"},{"product_id":"homilies-volume-1-1-59-on-the-psalms-book-jerome-9780813213040","title":"Homilies, Volume 1 (1-59 on the Psalms)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis volume contains fifty-nine homilies preached by St. Jerome on selected Psalms. Jerome's knowledge of the \"three Sacred Languages,\" Latin, Greek and Hebrew, his acquaintance with the exegetical methods of Antioch and Alexandria, his use of Origen's \u003ci\u003eHexapla\u003c\/i\u003e and his work on the Psalter are impressive credentials for the quality of these works.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs far as can be determined now these homilies were intended primarily for the instruction and edification of the monastic community that Jerome had established in Bethlehem where he spent the closing years of his life.

Some scholars believe that an affirmative answer is correct, others citing the evidence of \u003ci\u003eHomily\u003c\/i\u003e 69 on Psalm 91, think that the content of some homilies is too deeply theological to be an impromptu composition.

In general, as in Volume 1, Morin's text has been followed as reproduced in the \u003ci\u003eCorpus Christianorum, series latina\u003c\/i\u003e 78.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe editors of the \u003ci\u003eCorpus\u003c\/i\u003e have added two homilies, one delivered on the Feast of the Epiphany from the Gospel of our Lord's baptism and on Psalm 28, edited by B. Capelle; the other on the First Sunday of Lent, edited by I. Fraipont. In the present volume, they are Homilies 89 and 90.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDom Germain Morin, as noted in the Introduction of Volume 1 of this translation, discovered fourteen homilies, providing a second series on the Psalms, in four Italian Codices dating from the tenth and fifteenth centuries. He examined with great care their probable identity with, or relationship to, the lost homilies of Saint Jerome catalogues in \u003ci\u003eDe viris illustribus\u003c\/i\u003e 'on the Psalms, from the tenth to the sixteenth, seven homilies.' There is more work to be done and many problems to be resolved, however, before this identification can be established with certitude. This chief obstacle is that of chronology. The \u003ci\u003eDe viris illustibus\u003c\/i\u003e was written in all probability in 392-393, whereas the homilies appear to have been written in 402, the date determined by the study of Dom Morin. Other scholars, as U. Moricca, A. Penna, G. Grützmacher, give 394 and 413 as the earliest and latest dates, respectively, for all the homilies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThere is question also whether the Septuagint or the Hebrew Psalter was in the hands of Jerome when he wrote or preached the homilies on Psalms 10 and 15. They seem, in fact, to have been written rather than delivered, for he speaks of readers rather than hearers. They differ from the regular series of sermons in their greater erudition, more sophisticated language, many Greek expressions, and variations from the \u003ci\u003eHexapla\u003c\/i\u003e. The closing doxology so characteristic of the other sermons is missing in them. They are much longer, and Jerome speaks of certain details as if he had already explained them. On the whole, they give evidence, too, of greater care in preparation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":50630679888145,"sku":"NGR9780813214474","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51008195133713,"sku":"NIN9780813214474","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0813214475.jpg?v=1751264632"},{"product_id":"jerome-s-commentary-on-daniel-book-jerome-9781606083758","title":"Jerome's Commentary on Daniel","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51039129633041,"sku":"NIN9781606083758","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51079475396881,"sku":"CIN1606083759G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52664574214417,"sku":"NLS9781606083758","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1606083759.jpg?v=1751024218"},{"product_id":"hieronymi-de-viris-inlustribus-liber-accedit-gennadii-catalogus-virorum-inlustri-book-jerome-9781021633330","title":"Hieronymi De Viris Inlustribus Liber.
