Glossary of Later Latin
Glossary of Later Latin to 600 A.D. by Alexander Souter, Oxford at the Clarendon/Sandpiper, 1949, 0198642040. https://www.amazon.com/Glossary-Later-Latin-600-D/dp/0198642040/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=glossary+of+later+latin&qid=1572414323&sr=8-1
If you are interested in understanding the Bible, presumably you are also interested in knowing how the Early Christians understood its texts and the faith taught by the Apostles. If for this reason and/or for other reasons, you are interested in the Early Church Fathers - even if just the Greek Fathers - and/or the Vulgate, you would do well to learn Latin. Ancient Latin translations of the Bible and the Greek Fathers supply some of what's missing in the extant Greek…

Language: English
ISBN-10: 0899576869
ISBN-13: 978-0899576862Learn a Biblical Greek WORD Everyday.
The purpose of a Word of the Day is to share the richness of the Greek language used in the New Testament and help make these words practical in the reader's Christian living. Because words do matter, the words of the New Testament matter most. And in a day when words don't seem to mean much, the need for precision in Christian doctrine and practice has never been more critical.
For each day of the year, Watson presents a…

Origen (tr. John Behr), On FIrst Principles: A Reader's Edition (2020: Oxford University Press)
This is the new definitive English translation of one of the most important writings from one of the most important priest/theologian/philosophers of the Early Church, Origen's Peri Archon. St. Augustine, though he had to issue corrections to some ideas that reportedly came from it, thought so highly of Origen that he urged St. Jerome to pause writing his Vulgate in order to translate more of his works into Latin first. A later father wrote, "When Origen was good, there was no one better; but when he was bad, there was no one worse," referring also, most likely, especially to this…

Jesus and the Last Supper
http://www.eerdmans.com/Products/4871/jesus-and-the-last-supper.aspx
by Brant PitreWho did Jesus of Nazareth claim to be? What was his relationship to early Judaism? When and how did he expect the kingdom to come? What were his intentions? Though these key questions have been addressed in studies of the historical Jesus, Brant Pitre argues that they cannot be fully answered apart from a careful historical analysis of the Last Supper accounts. Yet these accounts, both by the Gospel writers and by Paul, are widely neglected by contemporary Jesus research.
In this book Pitre fills a notable gap in historical Jesus research as he…
