Biblical exegesis at Wearmouth‐Jarrow before Bede? The Hereford commentary on Matthew

open access: yesEarly Medieval Europe, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 183-219, May 2025.
This article examines a previously neglected fragment of an early medieval commentary on Matthew’s Gospel, the bifolium Hereford Cathedral Library, P. II. 10. I argue on palaeographical grounds that this fragment was produced in Bede’s monastery of Wearmouth‐Jarrow in the first decades of the eighth century, at roughly the same time as the production ...

Participation in Christ and Divine and Human Righteousness: Reading Paul with Gregory of Nyssa

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic Theology, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 166-192, April 2025.
Abstract Participation in Christ and divine and human righteousness are vital, yet perennially debated, Pauline motifs. Arguably, what is most distinctive and crucial about ‘righteousness’ in Paul's epistles is its christological re‐definition in texts such as 1 Cor 1:30.

Text, time, and travel: temporal pathways of postsocialism and Islam

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 217-239, March 2025.

open access: yesEarly Medieval Europe, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 26-49, February 2025.

Seeing Otherwise: ‘The Least of These’ and Revelation in Jean‐Luc Marion

open access: yesThe Heythrop Journal, Volume 66, Issue 1, Page 54-71, January 2025.
Abstract In his familiar essay in Phenomenology and the ‘Theological Turn’, Jean‐François Courtine writes that the ‘cardinal experience’ of revelatory phenomena would undoubtedly be the incarnation. But in its singularity, this experience, he admits, seems to elude phenomenological thought.

Metaphors Realized in Narrative: A New Direction for Biblical Metaphor

open access: yesReligion Compass, Volume 18, Issue 10, October 2024.
ABSTRACT An insight of Conceptual Metaphor Theory (CMT) is that metaphor is more than a mere literary device; it influences readers through cognitive connections. Yet biblical metaphors have most often been studied in poetic, theological contexts and within linguistic rhetorical devices like “YHWH is my shepherd.” In contrast, some of the most ...

Who in the world are the Heruli?1

open access: yesEarly Medieval Europe, Volume 32, Issue 3, Page 284-305, August 2024.
The history of the Heruli represents a historical conundrum. Because of the poor state of the sources, caution is required when analysing this subject. However, the peculiarity of the case encourages us to rethink the way we conceive of and describe migrations in Late Antiquity.
