Basil the Great was one of the three Cappadocians, Bishops and theologians who supported and advanced the doctrine of the Trinity, when it was under attack between the Council of Nicea and the Council of Chalcedon. Basil was a polished writer, having studied in Athens, with Gregory Nazianzus.The first thing which strikes one is the emphasis Basil places on the analysis of prepositions. Unlike English, French, and German, to my knowledge, preposition change their meaning depending on the case of their usage in the text. The same preposition "meta-" can mean "with, amid, or among" if the context is genitive, while it means "after or behind" if the context is accusitive (or as it appears as a prefix for such words as "metaphysics".) Basil suggests many writers get these subtlties of meaning a bit mixed up. As you read the Cappidocians and others of the period, they sound more and more like modern linguistic philosophers, making arguments on how the terms are used by pastors in the sanctuary.What is remarkable is the extent to which Basil and the other Cappadocians come so close to virtually quoting Plato, especially his "Myth of the Cave" in Book Seven of "The Republic." Basil's main argument is that as long as you assume the Holy Spirit is part of the Trinity, none of the way of speaking about it devalues its role in comparison to The Father and The Son. It is co-equal in importance to the other two. He cites his well-known metaphor that the Spirit is akin to the heat of a branding iron, a property of that rod, but not of its essence.Like his fellow Cappadocians, he spends much time on the connectin between the body and the soul, and how one can be saved when the other dies and decomposes. One of the most rewarding things about studying the Cappadocians is that you do not get the sense that the orthodox and the heretical divisions of Christianity were at one another's throats. That comes later. Here, it may not be unlike modern ELCA Lutherans arguing with Missouri synod members. Both sides were devout and largely shared the same scriptures.It is a great boon to have these little treatises from these giants of the fourth century, so we can determine easily the strains of fourth century theology.
I cannot compare this product to other translations however I think that almost any other translation would be better. There are many misspelled words leaving me to wonder if anyone even bothered to proof the text. It is quite apparent that the translators were not entirely proficient with the English language which makes reading this book a bit of a chore.This is an ebook that was printed by a website leading me to believe they probably just ripped the text off the internet somewhere and printed it out in book form.
If you are interested in reading Basil's thoughts on the Holy Spirit, this is the edition to get. It is a fresh translation with brief but helpful introduction. The text has many footnotes, indicating Scriptures cited or translational issues. I compared this with the older translation, and it is much better. The content of Basil's writing here concerns the controversies of his day, particularly the Arian controversy. So, much of the book discusses the various parts of speech used in relation to the Spirit: "though whom" "from whom" "with "and" etc. The reader needs to reconstruct the views of Basil's opponents from his refutation. Nevertheless, there are many eloquent passages in this, and the book itself is brief. Highly recommended to anyone with an interest in the teachings of the Church Fathers.I'm impressed with this "Popular Patristics Series", too. It looks like it's an Eastern Orthodox effort, so they are re-translating the Fathers I happen to find interesting.
Great translation of a critically important text in the history of Christianity. Every mature Christian should read and think about this book from 1600 years ago.
PLASED
A wonderfully clear translation which allows you to hear the voice of the original author. This translation truly allows the reader to feel as if he is hearing the author himself speaking. This is particularly amazing since St. Basil wrote over 1600 years ago.On the Holy Spirit is a survey of the scriptural passages (Old and New Testament) which explain and illustrate the nature of the Holy Spirit, that he is divine and co-equal to the Father and the Son. St. Basil wrote this before the Nicean Council, which was convened to discuss the relationship of the three Persons of the Trinity, so it is very scholarly. It is a good companion for those who would like to study the bible on these topics, but also for those who would like to have a thorough understanding of the arguments against the co-equal divinity of the Holy Spirit circulating at the time.I will read more from this translator because he does not inject his voice into the translation as far as I can determine.
If one is to grasp the significance of the first Council of Nicaea we must familiarize ourselves with the writings and beliefs of the time. Saint (Bishop of Caesarea and Cappadocia)Basil is a man who was at the center of much of the formative events of this time. Are you seeking to an understand the faith and beliefs of our first and second century brothers and sisters in Christ? This book contains glimpses of the these concepts, thoughts, ideology and faith of Bishop Basil who was one of the giants of his time. We, believers in Christ of the 21st century, need to refresh our memories of a time when our faith began a serious attempt to communicate the truth of the message of Jesus to an ever widening group of people.
Great book easy read.
