Description
In the writings gathered here, Augustine clarifies difficult passages in the Old Testament, from the building of Noah's ark to the struggles of Job, and addresses common questions from the members of his congregation. Each work is introduced and annotated by modern scholars who provide context for Augustine's life and thought at the time of his writing.
Augustine of Hippo's intense study of the Scriptures compels us to share his reverence for them. The Bible is not meant to be memorized at face value, unquestioned and unexamined. It is a message from our God, meant to be pored over, wrestled with, and taken to heart--as Augustine did.
This learned Church Father initially rejected the Scriptures out of hand as having no literary, theological, or personal value. But then he heard the Word of God proclaimed and explained by Ambrose, bishop of Milan. After his conversion, Augustine never stopped studying the Scriptures, and his notes and commentaries make clear his devotion to the Word of God.
