From John of Apamea to Mark's Gospel: Two Dialogues with Thomasios:
A Hermeneutical Reading of Horao, Blepo, and Theoreo combines two
theological fields of investigation. The first is related to the
Patristic theology of Eastern Syrian Christianity and the second
resides in the field of Biblical theology. The research articulates
the two fields, which complement each other through a logic
exposition in that the theological conceptions of John of Apamea
serve as the hermeneutical reading of the verbs of visual
perception in the Markan Gospel. The first part expounds the
problem related to the quest of the historical John of Apamea, an
overview of the problem of his identity based upon the most
important critical works attributed to him, proposing a plausible
solution. The notion of the spiritual perception of the soul is
intrinsically connected with the notion of "spiritual exegesis" and
"spiritual senses", essential thoughts in the theology of the
dialogues with Thomasios. Applying this methodological approach to
the Scripture, the second part expounds the topic of the spiritual
seeing in Mark's Gospel. The section follows four expositive
stages. The first consists of the semantic analysis of the Markan
terminology and its psychological implications; the second analyzes
the narrative portrait of the seeing of Jesus; the third examines
briefly the seeing of the demons; the last stage considers the
contemplative attitude of the women in the context of Christ's
passion, death, and resurrection. From John of Apamea to Mark's
Gospel is essential reading for scholars in Eastern Patristic
theology, Biblical theology, and spiritual theology.
