In the translators introduction to this volume, James Kellerman relates the following story:As Thomas Aquinas was approaching Paris, a fellow traveler pointed out the lovely buildings gracing that city. Aquinas was impressed, to be sure, but he sighed and stated that he would rather have the complete Incomplete Commentary on Matthew than to be mayor of Paris itself.Thomass affection for the work attests its great popularity during the Middle Ages, despite its significant missing parts--everything beyond the end of Matthew 25, with further gaps of Matthew 8:11--10:15 and 13:14--18:35. Although there are gaps, what remains is quite lengthy, so much so that we offer the work in two volumes, comprising fifty-four homilies.While the early-fifth-century author displays a few Arian propensities in a handful of passages, for the most part the commentary is moral in nature and therefore orthodox and generic. The unknown author, who for several centuries was thought to be John Chrysostom, follows the allegorizing method of the Alexandrians, but not by overlooking the literal meaning. His passion, above all, is to set forth the meaning of Matthews Gospel for his readers.Here, for the first time, this ancient work is made available in English, ably translated by James A. Kellerman and edited by Thomas C. Oden.Ancient Christian Texts are new English translations of full-length commentaries or sermon series from ancient Christian authors that allow you to study key writings of the early church fathers in a fresh way.

The Science of Religion (1920) is Paramahansa Yoganandas first major published work and a landmark attempt to present spirituality as a universal, rational, and experiential science. Written soon after his arrival in the United States, the book explains that all true religions share a single underlying purpose: to lead human beings from suffering and restlessness to lasting happiness through direct inner experience of the Divine. Yogananda examines the human quest for joy, showing that ordinary pleasures are fleeting because they depend on external circumstances. True fulfillment, he argues, comes only from contact with the souls innate bliss, which transcends the senses. This experience is not bound to any creed but can be achieved through systematic spiritual practicewhat he calls the "science" of religion. Drawing on the philosophical traditions of India and Western psychology, Yogananda outlines meditation as the essential method for exploring consciousness, calming the mind, and realizing ones unity with Spirit. He also critiques sectarianism and dogma, inviting readers to approach religion as a universal path open to all seekers.

The Life Divine (Book I) is Sri Aurobindos monumental exploration of human existence and its potential for spiritual transformation. Written in rich, philosophical prose, it seeks to reconcile the deepest insights of Eastern mysticism with the rational clarity of Western thought. Aurobindo begins by examining the human aspiration for a higher life, the tension between material existence and spiritual yearning, and the apparent contradiction between the finite and the infinite.He proposes that evolution is not merely biological but also consciousness-driven: life has emerged from matter, mind has emerged from life, and the next step is the awakening of a supramental consciousnessa divine consciousness capable of transforming human nature. In Book I, he analyzes fundamental questions: the problem of evil, the dualities of spirit and matter, and the role of reason, intuition, and faith in understanding reality. He draws on the Vedic and Vedantic tradition while also engaging with science and philosophy to show that spirit is not opposed to life but seeks to manifest fully within it.Profound yet practical, The Life Divine offers a vision of human destiny that transcends suffering and limitation. It invites readers to see evolution as a journey toward divine life on eartha union of consciousness and matter.

The Bodhidharma Anthology: The Earliest Records of Zen is a groundbreaking scholarly edition and translation of five essential texts associated with Bodhidharma, the semi-legendary Indian monk credited with bringing Chan (Zen) Buddhism to China in the early sixth century. Edited and translated by Jeffrey L. Broughton, this anthology presents the earliest known written materials about Bodhidharmas teachings and life, offering a direct window into the formative period of Zen thought. The texts explore core Chan ideas such as direct perception of the mind, the non-reliance on written scriptures, and the practice of meditation as a means to awaken ones Buddha-nature. Broughton provides careful translation alongside extensive notes that clarify historical context, doctrinal nuances, and textual transmission. He situates Bodhidharma within the intellectual and religious currents of medieval China, showing how these writings helped shape the later Zen emphasis on enlightenment through direct experience rather than scholastic study. This volume serves both scholars and general readers interested in the origins of Zen Buddhism. It reveals a raw, sometimes austere vision of spiritual practiceemphasizing simplicity, personal realization, and the stripping away of conceptual barriers. The Bodhidharma Anthology is an invaluable resource for understanding how one enigmatic teacher inspired a tradition that would transform East Asian spirituality.

The eternal God has created the universe. And that universe is time-bound. How can we best understand Gods relationship with our time-bound universe? For example, does God experience each moment of time in succession or are all times present to God?How we think of God and time has implications for our understanding of the nature of time, the creation of the universe, Gods knowledge of the future, Gods interaction with his creation and the fullness of Gods life.In this Spectrum Multiview volume, four notable philosophers skillfully take on this difficult topic--all writing from within a Christian framework yet contending for different views. Paul Helm argues that divine eternity should be construed as a state of absolute timelessness. Alan G. Padgett maintains that Gods eternity is more plausibly to be understood as relative timelessness. William Lane Craig presents a hybrid view that combines timelessness with omnitemporality. And Nicholas Wolterstorff advocates a doctrine of unqualified divine temporality.Each essay is followed by responses from the other three contributors and a final counter-response from the original essayist, making for a lively exchange of ideas. Editor Gregory E. Ganssle provides a helpful introduction to the debate and its significance. Together these five scholars conduct readers on a stimulating and mind-stretching journey into one of the most controversial and challenging areas of theology today.Spectrum Multiview Books offer a range of viewpoints on contested topics within Christianity, giving contributors the opportunity to present their position and also respond to others in this dynamic publishing format.
