Besides his elder sister Marcelllina, who received the veil at the hands of Pope Liberius, at Christmas [perh. 353 a.d.], St. Ambrose had also a brother named Satyrus, to which name, in three epitaph on him ascribed to the bishop, is added Uranius. This probably, however, merely in reference to his translation from earth to heaven. Satyrus had in his earlier years, as well as St. Ambrose, practised as an advocate, and held office.

Can you imagine what it would have been like to be taught personally about Jesus by the apostle Paul or Peter? Clement of Rome was a first century convert who had that wonderful privilege.

Justin Martyr was born around 100 AD at Flavia Neapolis (today Nablus) in Samaria into a pagan family, and defined himself as a Gentile.His grandfather, Bacchius, had a Greek name, while his father, Priscus, bore a Latin name, which has led to speculations that his ancestors may have settled in Neapolis soon after its establishment or that they were descended from a Roman "diplomatic" community that had been sent there.

Van het evangelie van Bartholomeüs hebben we geen enkele soort van beschrijving: we vinden het veroordeeld in het Gelasiaanse decreet, wat kan betekenen dat de samensteller van het decreet een boek met die naam kende, of dat hij het op vertrouwen van Hiëronymus aannam. In de pseudo-Dionysische geschriften worden twee zinnen aangehaald, 'de goddelijke Bartholomeüs, ' en een derde is zojuist aan het licht gebracht uit het gelijkgestemde 'boek va...
