The Old Testament was written in Biblical Hebrew, excluding the books written during "the Chaldean captivity" such as Daniel and Ezra which were written in "Biblical Aramaic" during the "Chaldean captivity".

I vangeli sinottici (dal greco syn, "insieme", e opsis, "visione") sono i tre vangeli di Matteo, Marco e Luca. Vengono chiamati così perché se si mette il testo dei tre vangeli su tre colonne parallele, in uno sguardo d'insieme (sinossi) si notano facilmente molte somiglianze nella narrazione, nella disposizione degli episodi evangelici, a volte anche nei singoli brani, con frasi uguali o con leggere differenze.

L'ancien Père Abbé de Ligugé propose ici une approche dynamique du mystère de la Trinité. Il l'introduit par différents aspects touchant à la rencontre du Christ à la fois comme un phénomène lié à notre humanité, mais aussi comme expérience de la Parole de Dieu, de la liturgie, des sacrements et de la communion ecclésiale. Il montre qu'une telle rencontre se vit dans la force de l'Esprit divin : pour cela il revisite la vision de l'homme selon la Bible et la place qu'y tient l'Esprit saint.

John the apostle must have thought he had seen everything. Having been with Jesus all the years of his ministry, John witnessed more miracles than he could count, saw more displays of power than he could comprehend, and experienced more love than he could fathom.

The book of Psalms expresses our human experiences through its beautiful prose. But this Old Testament book is more than just relatable poetry—it reveals a rich theology of God, the nature and work of Jesus, and Christ's voice hidden in Scripture. The Psalms are the songs of the Son. But how can these songs point to Jesus if they were transcribed centuries before his life and death on the cross?

There are eight such sayings, each beginning with the words, “Blessed are.” Each one of these beatitudes taught everyone in the first century (and still teaches everyone in the twenty-first century) how to be blessed. They might be mistaken for a shopping list for the soul, just a list of eight virtues to pick up before we leave the store. But they’re not. They’re inseparably interwoven.
