Excerpt: ...and happy eternity; not, indeed, excluding all idea of that peace and reconciliation with God which is to be enjoyed in this world as a prelude and preparation for the other, yet at the same time not always thinking of this peace or expressly alluding to it; or rather thinking of them united together, as St. Cyprian did when he wrote concerning heretics, "They cannot arrive at the reward 1 Ecclus. xliv. 11.; Wisdom iii. 3. 2 Scacchius de Not. et Sign. Sanct., c. ix. 2. 3 Jer. xxxiv. 5; cf. Gen. xv. 15; 4 Kings xxii. 20. 4 De Unit. Eccles. xi. in fin. of peace who have broken the peace of the Lord by the madness of discord." Arnobius, too, writing about the same time, couples it with pardon of sins, and says distinctly that we ask for it both for the living and the dead: --Pax et venia a nobis postulatur... et adhuc vitam degentibus et resohitis corporuni vinctione."l Good. In one of the inscriptions which we quoted just now from Column IX. of the Lateran Collection (No. 15), there was a prayer that the spirit of the deceased (Lais) might rest in good, in bono, and the same phrase is to be seen in many other epitaphs both of the same and of other collections. We may still read in the mortar round one of the graves in the Catacomb of St. Alexander on the Via Nomentana, Saviniane, Spiritus tu(u)s in p. 4, s. bono; Boldetti gives us another, Salonice, I spiritus tu(u)s in bonu; Marangoni a third,2 Attice, Spiritus tu(u)s in bonu; and others have been preserved in books not so easily accessible. Some persons take bonum in these epitaphs as being simply equivalent to God, the one Supreme Good, just as the evil from which we pray to be delivered at the end of the Lord's Prayer may be understood as standing for the Evil one himself, ...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Epitaphs of the Catacombs: Or Christian Inscriptions in Rome During the First Four Centuries We have now a second edition of our Roma Sotterranea nearly ready, and the question necessarily arose whether the inscriptions should be again omitted. Nearly ten years have elapsed, and De Rossi's second volume has not appeared. On the other hand, it was found that the materials already collected were abundantly sufficient to fill a volume, and to give (it is believed) a very fair' idea of the whole subject. I began to make a collection of Christian inscriptions in Rome in 1848, copying them both from books and from the stones themselves. In the present volume, however, I have trusted more to De Rossi's printed copies than to my own mss. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Sarcophagi from the Jewish Catacombs of Ancient Rome written by Adia Konikoff and published by Franz Steiner Verlag. This book was released on 1990 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive inventory of all known sarcophagi from the Jewish catacombs of Rome, is the first specialized treatment of this subject in monograph form. It describes and analyses each sarcophagus and provides full reference material which it critically examines. This work thus fills a lacuna in the literature on this field, which has up to now been confined to the treatment of early Christian and pagan sarcophagi of the period. �We have here a complete overview of the Jewish sarcophagi of ancient Rome, all of them illustrated by photographs and provided with extensive bibliographies. This work thus fills a lacuna in the literature on this field.� Journal for the Study of Judaism �Until this book, however, no one has attempted to assemble all of the Jewish sarcophagi separately in one place and to provide relevant information in the form of a well-ordered catalogue. For this reason, Konikoff's book provides a welcome resource for anyone interested in the material evidence of ancient Judaism and forms a good beginning for study of the sarcophagi, especially from a bibliographic point of view.� Gnomon .

Download or read book Ancient Jewish Art and Archaeology in the Diaspora written by Rachel Hachlili and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-11-02 with total page 603 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jewish Diaspora in Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine periods from first to the eighth centuries C.E. is the subject of this work. The author thoroughly investigates origin, symbolism and significance of the mainly synagogal and funerary art forms in the Diaspora. Ancient Jewish Art and Archaeology in the Diaspora is the companion volume to the successful Ancient Jewish Art and Archeaeology in the Land of Israel (1988) by the same author. The geographical area covered includes Syria, Asia Minor, North Africa and Mediterranean Europe. The first section examines the characteristic features of Diaspora Art synagogue architecture and art (including the Torah shrine and mosaic pavements). Another section deals with burial and funerary practices. Of special importance are the sections on the Biblical scenes, designs and iconography of the Dura Europos synagogue, and the Jewish symbols such as the Menorah, ritual objects, the Ark, the conch and the Torah Scrolls. The book is richly illustrated with more than 325 drawings and photographs, some in colour.
