Marius Victorinus' Commentary on Galatians

by Stephen A. Cooper

This is the first English translation of Marius Victorinus' commentary on Galatians. Analytical notes, full bibliography, and a lengthy introduction make this book a valuable resource for the study of the first Latin commentator on Paul. No such comparable work exists in English; and this volume engages fully with German, French, and Italian scholarship on Victorinus' commentaries. A number of themes receive special treatment in a lengthy the relation of Victorinus' exegetical efforts to the trinitarian debates; the iconography of the apostle Paul in mid-fourth-century Rome; Victorinus' exegetical methodology; his intentions as a commentator; and the question of his influence on later Latin commentators (Ambrosiaster and Augustine).

C'est l'analyse que le traducteur offre de la doctrine de la justification chez Marius Victorinus, et divers passages particuliers du commentaire traitant de ce sujet que j'ai lu et non la totalité du commentaire, pour préparer un article sur la justification chez les Pères.
