Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture. Old Testament IV.

VINTAGESTAN BOOKS
Title: Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture. Old Testament IV. Joshua, Judges, Ruth, 1 to 2 Samuel
Summary: This volume gathers patristic (early Christian) interpretations of the historical books Joshua through 2 Samuel, drawing from Church Fathers such as Origen, Augustine, Jerome, Ambrose, Chrysostom, Gregory of Nyssa, and Theodoret. Rather than modern critical analysis, it presents how early Christians read these texts theologically, morally, and typologically, often with Christ at the centre. This commentary aims to recover the ancient Christian way of reading Scripture, showing how these Old Testament narratives were understood as part of the unified story of salvation fulfilled in Christ.
