Commentaire sur la genèse
Angelome de Luxeuil - Collection Sagesses chretiennes
Résumé
--
Written between the years 830 and 850, this text is one of the first testimonies of renewal in monastic reading of the Scriptures during the Carolingian Renaissance. It has been criticized as being a 'compilation', and it is true that the author quotes generously from Jerome, Augustine and Isidore of Seville. But we must remember that all the masters did this, basing their own writings on the works of greater men. Yet on many points, Angelomus quotes his sources with a critical mind, often suggesting various approaches to the Scriptures and so heralding historico-critical, allegorical, moral and canonical readings. At the end of his elucidations, he leaves the reader free to choose. Some vestiges of discussions permit us to suppose that Angelomus was drawing from the memory of the 'questions and answers' sessions that took place frequently in his time. In this guide to the reading of Genesis, his intention is to give those in religious orders the necessary elements to achieve 'lectio divina'. It is a somewhat hesitant exposé of what the Vatican II Council and the Synod Fathers recently recommended to all Christians. In spite of appearances, this text, translated into French for the first time, is a highly topical one. It is also a testimony of a period in the history of exegesis, of interest not only to scholars of the Bible but to all those who seek to practice 'lectio divina'.
