He is also spiritual advisor to the Mother of God Community in the Archdiocese of Washington. Thomas C. Oden (1931-2016), was the general editor of the Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture and the Ancient Christian Doctrine series as well as the author of Classic Christianity, a revision of his three-volume systematic theology. His books also include The African Memory of Mark, Early Libyan Christianity, and How Africa Shaped the Christian Mind.

Klappentext While at least forty early church authors commented on Acts, the works of only three survive in their entirety--John Chrysostom's, Bede the Venerable's and a long Latin epic poem by Arator. Selections from all three plus many other fragments from other ancient works appear in this book. Edited by Francis Martin.
