Excerpt from The Ten Theophanies The following hymn of devout and tender enthusiasm for the Lord Jesus, translated from the Latin, may be found in numerous collections of sacred verse: Fairest Lord Jesus, Ruler Of Nature! Jesus, of God and of Mary the Soul Thee will I cherish, Thee will I honor Thee, my delight and my glory and crown! Fair are the meadows, Fairer the woodlands, Robed in the flowery vesture of spring Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer, Making my sorrowful Spirit to sing.

The work of Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite stands at a cusp in the history of thought: it is at once Hellenic and Christian, classical and medieval, philosophical and theological. Unlike the predominantly theological or text-historical studies which constitute much of the scholarly literature on Dionysius, Theophany is completely philosophical in nature, placing Dionysius within the tradition of ancient Greek philosophy and emphasizing, in a positive light, his continuity with the non-Christian Neoplatonism of Plotinus and Proclus. Eric D. Perl offers clear expositions of the reasoning that underlies Neoplatonic philosophy and explains the argumentation that leads to and supports Neoplatonic doctrines. He includes extensive accounts of fundamental ideas in Plotinus and Proclus, as well as Dionysius himself, and provides an excellent philosophical defense of Neoplatonism in general.

Hilary Anne-Marie Mooney investigates the notion of theophany in the writings of the early medieval thinker Johannes Scottus Eriugena. She focuses on the creative impulses which he draws from the Scripture and she investigates the influence of theological and philosophical thinkers of the first six Christian centuries on Eriugena. The author considers those passages of Eriugena's writings in which the precise term 'theophany' is used as well as other passages in which the term does not occur but which are nonetheless imbued with the 'notion' of a theophanic appearing of God. These traces of theophanic understanding of the revealing of God are considered within Eriugena's oeuvre as a whole, including his biblical commentaries. In her study, the author maintains that a theophanic structure characterized by four recurring facets may be unearthed in Eriugena's theology of the revealing of God. In the various contexts within which he writes about this divine revealing (in his theology of creation, his anthropology, his account of the relationship between human beings and God as seen from the perspective of a Christian spirituality), it is the notion of theophany which he uses to illuminate the relationship between that which is created and its creator. In doing so, he bequeaths a rich theological analysis of the appearing of God to subsequent generations of theologians and shows himself to be both a coherent and creative thinker.

Excerpt from The Church Triumphant If the Bible be thus inspired, the Holy Spirit having been the controlling agent in the selection of ideas and the use of material, and the final authority in the choice of words, figures, phrases, and forms used, then a most rigid scrutiny of the (original) text in its symbolism, its construction, and its verbal elements, will surely repay richly for all the labor.
