Sobre IBD

From the earliest centuries of the Church, Christians have turned with profound reverence to the opening chapters of Matthew and Luke, sensing in these brief but luminous passages a distillation of the entire Christian mystery. The Infancy Narratives are not sentimental preludes to the 'real' Gospel, nor are they decorative embellishments added to satisfy curiosity about Jesus’ origins. They are, rather, the first proclamation of the Good News, the initial unfolding of the mystery of the Word made flesh, the revelation of divine condescension in its most delicate and hidden form. Within these narratives, the Church has always recognized the seeds of Christology, Mariology, ecclesiology, and even sacramental theology. They are the Gospel in miniature, containing in germ what will later blossom in the public ministry, the Passion, and the Resurrection.

  • Cosmic and Natural Metaphors in the Bible
    Dominic Stevens
    From the first verse of Genesis to the final vision of the heavenly Jerusalem, Scripture speaks in a language woven from the fabric of creation itself. Light and darkness, mountains and gardens, wind and fire, bread and water, stars and stones-these are not merely poetic ornaments but the very grammar through which divine revelation unfolds. The Bible does not treat the created...

God, who governs all things with wisd...

    From the earliest centuries of the Church, Christians have looked upon the vast sweep of Roman history with a sense of awe, not merely because Rome shaped the world in which the Gospel first appeared, but because Rome seemed to stand at the crossroads of divine providence. The Roman Empire was not simply a political entity, nor merely a civilization among others. For the Father...

  • Early Christianity and Roman Imperial Culture
    Dominic Stevens
    Christianity was born into a world that, at first glance, seemed entirely inhospitable to its message. The Roman Empire, stretching from the misty shores of Britain to the deserts of Arabia, presented itself as the pinnacle of human civilization: a political and cultural colossus whose laws, armies, and traditions shaped the lives of millions. Yet within this vast imperial orde...
