| | |  Cyril of Jerusalem: Encyclopedia II - Acacius of Caesarea - Rise to prominence in the Arian partyNothing is known of the date or country of his birth, but he was probably a Syrian; and throughout his life bore the nickname of one-eyed (in Greek `o Mονoφθαλμος); no doubt from a personal defect (St.Jerome, Viri ill. III., XCVIII), but possibly with a maliciously figurative reference, also, to his general shiftiness of conduct and his rare skill in ambiguous statement.
His great intellectual ability, joined to the prestige he already possessed as the friend and successor of Eusebius of Caesarea, naturally singled him ...

| | | | Cyril of Jerusalem: Encyclopedia II - Authorship of the Johannine works - The Gospel
Authorship of the Johannine works - Literary criticism in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Although the critical movement reached almost complete agreement about the two-source hypothesis for the Synoptic Gospels, no agreement has been reached about the literary sources for the Johannine works. A perhaps typical example of a critical theory of the development of these was provided by Julius Wellhausen in 1908. He hypothesized a base document which was heavily modified by a later editor. He claimed to ...

| | | | Cyril of Jerusalem: Encyclopedia II - Liturgy of St James - Overview The Liturgy of Saint James is based on the traditions of the ancient rite of the Early Christian Church at Jerusalem, as the Mystagogic Catecheses of St Cyril of Jerusalem imply. Forming the historical basis of the Liturgy of Antioch, it is still the principal liturgy of the Syriac Orthodox Church, in Syriac and, in the ancient Indian Orthodox Church, in translations into Malayalam, Hindi and English.
The Liturgy is associated with the name of James the Just, brother of Jesus and chief among the Jewish Christians ...

| | | | Cyril of Jerusalem: Encyclopedia II - Council of Laodicea - Historical context Rome's war with Persia had continued under the Emperor Julian, who died of battle wounds on the last campaign on June 26, 363.

| | | | Cyril of Jerusalem: Encyclopedia II - Catechism - Protestant catechisms The catechism's question-and-answer format, with a view toward the instruction of children, was a form adopted by Protestant Christians almost from the beginning of the Reformation.
Among the first projects of the Protestant Reformation, was the production of catechisms self-consciously modelled after the older traditions of Cyril and Augustine. These catechisms showed special admiration for Chrysostom's view of the family as a "little church", and placed strong responsibility on every father to teach his children, in order to prevent them from coming to Baptism or the Lord's Table ignorant of the doctrine u ...

| | | | Cyril of Jerusalem: Encyclopedia II - Gospel of the Hebrews - Content One of the unique features of the text, and one point where it differs from the canonical Gospel of Matthew, is its reference to the Holy Spirit as being Jesus' mother. Origen, in commenting on the gospel of John, notes that "if any accept the Gospel according to the Hebrews, where the Saviour himself saith, 'Even now did my mother the Holy Spirit take me by one of mine hairs, and carried me away unto the great mountain Thabor', he will be perplexed." (from M. R. James's translation) M. R. James notes that he believes this comment spr ...

| | | | Cyril of Jerusalem: Encyclopedia II - Gospel of the Nazoraeans - Authorship Concerning its origin, many historical writers believe that it was written by Matthew. Jerome in his work On Illustrious Men explains that Matthew, also called Levi, composed the Gospel of Christ, which was first published in Judea in Hebrew script.
Epiphanius is of the same opinion; he states in the Panarion that without the aid of others, Matthew, in the New Testament expounded and declared the Gospel in Hebrew, while using Hebrew script. Origen adds to this by stating that the very first account was written and composed in Hebrew script by Matthew, once a tax collector but later an apostle of J ...
