Introduction to Patristic Exegesis

An introduction to an upcoming series on my top five (or so) patristic exegetes.

I'm not sure that's the portrait of Bishop Coxe that's hanging in the Episcopal Home here in town, but I did see his portrait there a few years ago.

Dedication: To Jacquelyn in honor of her entrance into the Church.

I love your paraphrase of St. Jerome. 🤣

Glad to see you back on YouTube, Ted. Been listening to the St. Irenaeus podcasts for years and I'm happy that you've picked up the torch. Looking forward to many new informative videos and podcasts, especially about the Old Testament books (hint, hint).

Part 2 when? I've been SO eager for the list ever since this video came out.

For someone who owns the CUA, ACW, and ACCS series, but has never been to college - this was tremendously enlightening. Thank you.

Thank you for your work for normal dummies like me, LoL. I can't imagine reading all those books

[krjohnson]

Love these videos, Ted!
Please write a study bible! 🙂🙏

Another excellent video! I especially liked the comment about it being like a doctoral seminar, except that the students were very intelligent. 🤣 I look forward to the next one.

[ParStenberg]

Brilliant video! And now after having seen more of your output: subscribed. :-)

Greetings from Wyoming! Thank you for putting your knowledge and love into these videos. It’s not often I can watch a 40 minute plus video and enjoy every minute of it, but yours I can. Please keep these coming, you are using your talents to serve God by teaching the Christian community.

I bought the Haydock Bible on your recommendation and plan on carrying it to Bible study!

May the peace of Christ be with you always.

Very helpful and informative. Thank you.

The content on this channel is magnificent, keep up the good work!

[dragonclan]

Wonderful and informative! Thanks, Ted!

Great video; one of the greatest discoveries I made at my (Methodist) seminary was Thomas Oden, who made the case in all his writings that the cure for the confusion brought upon the seminaries and the churches by theological liberalism was to return to the consensus of the whole church, and especially the Early Fathers. I’ve been reading them where I can, and reading their comments on Scripture ever since

[Jeremy.Mathetes]

Thank you for this video!! I’m reading through the Church Fathers for the first time and this was so helpful and inspiring. Loved your final thoughts too. I’m a Protestant, and I’m the first to admit that my evangelical tradition has done an incredibly poor job of teaching the history of the Church and the Fathers. There is work to be done.

Thank you brother Ted for making videos again!

[RobertFallon]

Great information and a great message. Bravo! And thank you.

[Paul]

From this channel I found out, among other things, the Fathers of the Church series, which in the future I hope to build up a collection of St. Augustin and more once i get that far.

[sdjohnston]

Just finished this video. This is awesome! Thank you.
