115 TESTIMONIA VETERUM DE S. JOANNE CHRYSOST. 116
A ...above all heretics on the parable of the sower, a long and elegant work; one treatise on the apostle Thomas, in which he argues most forcefully against the Arians; two books on the Song of Songs; also the Life of the holy Meletius, bishop of Antioch; a significant volume on the legal vestments of the priests and Levites, and on the adornment of the high priest of the Old Testament; one treatise on humility in the washing of the feet; one treatise against those who do not attend the masses; many treatises on virginity, on penance, on faith, on patience, on confession, on almsgiving. Homilies and sermons throughout the whole of Lent; a declamatory sermon on the beheading of St. John the Baptist; also others, fragrant with wondrous sweetness, in praise of the blessed Virgin; two books against the Arabs on the resurrection of the dead, who claimed that souls die with the body; also one book against the Jews; also a large and remarkable volume against the Gentiles in the form of a dialogue; one book on the order and office of the priest. He published hymns and orations and many other metrical works among the Greeks; and although he may have shone with Latin eloquence, he nevertheless wrote for the most part in Greek during the times of Theodosius the Great.
In this review he ascribes to John Chrysostom certain things which seem never to have been considered among his works; others, however, are mentioned nowhere else, and either lie hidden somewhere or have perhaps perished: such as that book against Apollinaris and two other books on the Resurrection of the dead against the Arabs, who claimed that souls die with the body.
Regarding this last work, much must be noted by us B. Eusebius says that the Arabs claimed that souls die with the body and would rise with it, and that a synod was convened against this heresy, at which Origen was present. We have often seen Chrysostom declaiming against many of the auditors, who denied the resurrection entirely, and who at that time seemed to be present at Antioch in great numbers; but I do not remember having read anywhere that he refuted those who said that souls would die with the body and would rise with it, or that he attacked the Arabs teaching this same thing. And yet William of Pastrengo mentions that he saw those two books on the Resurrection of the dead against the Arabs, who claimed that souls die with the body, under the name of John Chrysostom; and he does seem entitled to full credence. Certainly, many works of John Chrysostom are being brought out of the darkness every day, as can be seen in this collection of the holy doctor’s works of ours, where in the twelfth volume we have issued eleven remarkable homilies that had hitherto lain hidden, and not a few in other volumes. He could indeed have published these books, either because the Arabs were still persisting in their ancient error in his time, or because some Antiochenes, neighbors to the Arabs, seemed to be reviving that old error of the Arabs.
As to what William of Pastrengo adds at the end: "And although he may have shone with Latin eloquence, he nevertheless wrote for the most part in Greek during the times of Theodosius the Great," I do not know where he gathered this; for all who have read his writings accurately believe that Chrysostom wrote nothing in Latin. Perhaps he thought that holy doctor shone with Latin eloquence because he had seen an imperfect work on Matthew, which circulates under the name of Chrysostom, written in Latin, which all learned men today contend is not by Chrysostom.
FR. MATTHAEI DE CHRYSOSTOMO ORATORE BREVE JUDICIUM
There are, in all, two types of Chrysostom’s homilies. In some, he treats entire books of the Sacred Scriptures in regular order. Here, in individual homilies C, he proposes a part of such a book, explains it in the first part of the homily, and sometimes repeats and retracts the same thing twice or thrice. The second part looks to the doctrine of morals, with the subject matter of the discourse taken either from the words he has explained—often from a few or even one—or from the time, the persons, or the events that were taking place at that time, and this sometimes in such a way that the oration seems forced or distorted. Hence those frequent disputations against theaters, circus games, magical arts, perjury [(b)], superstition, lust, luxury, against those who would talk, laugh, or dance among themselves in church, or even pick pockets [(c)], and against other effeminate, soft, unbridled vices of a century rushing toward ruin, exceeding all true faith and measure.
The other type of homily either explains the ecclesiastical readings from the Gospel and the Apostle, or was delivered on certain feast days, or on various vicissitudes and events of times and circumstances. In these, the oration is generally fuller and more ornamented. As regards invention, in the second type especially, no one will find Chrysostom’s talent wanting, though one will often accuse him of excess, blame him for having exceeded reasonable bounds, and long for a greater ease and probability of invention. All the homilies of the first type have, as I have said, the same disposition. Very few of the other type are subtly disposed: he not uncommonly changes the proposition, subjecting the notion to words either broader or narrower. It happens also that he frequently slides off into other matters amid the arguments themselves, for he could scarcely restrain his exultant talent. He carries his rhetorical apparatus, I mean flowers and pigments, everywhere with him, so that you would believe the man had fled, after the sacking of Constantinople, with all his riches of royal luxury and magnificence. Also, the inequality of the parts is criticized. At one time the exordium [(a)] takes up half the oration; at another, a brief treatment of arguments drags a huge sermonization behind it. In the first [(b)] type, when the words of the Sacred Scriptures are explained, the elocution is sometimes not so thin and subtle as to be deservedly praised, but slow, supine, negligent, and bringing weariness through its repetitions. In the other type, the elocution is often too affected, stuffed with continuous and D dissimilar metaphors, overgrown with many and varicolored flowers, composed for display and the pleasure of the ears, laboring under its own mass, inflated, swollen, and, to use his own words, βρύουσα, βρίθουσα, κόμποις, σφριγῶσα. I would recommend Chrysostom’s letters to no one at great length, unless to those who wish to know the history of his exile. A few, and those the longer ones to Olympias, stand out among the rest; but they exceed the measure of epistles. For the most part, they are similar to each other in both thoughts and words. The pathetic, which the epis...
117 CONSPECTUS OF THE WORKS OF CHRYSOSTOM ACCORDING TO THE MORELL EDITION 118 A he commends familiar phrases above all; in these it is seen partly in mere words and common expressions, and partly, as being artificial and studied, it displeases. But these are his faults, which he compensates for with great virtues in almost every oration. For at one moment he instructs subtly, at another he contends most keenly, at another he speaks properly and elegantly, at another copiously and ornately; at one moment he delights with sharpness and wit, at another he terrifies with lightning and thunder. To these, B the honesty of the character which he expresses in his oratory [should be added]; C the gravity and sublimity of his sentiments; a mind contemptuous of vices, pleasures, and human affairs, pious and most intensely devoted to religion. And indeed, if he had delivered these things at Athens or Rome, with the modest and composed manners of men and among grave auditors and judges of true eloquence, we would consider him very similar to Aeschines and Cicero, after whom it is an honor for anyone to hold second or third place.
(a) For just as among Greek, though not Christian, orators, no one excels Isocrates in the recommendation of civic virtue: so Chrysostom, after Christ and the apostles, D speaking of Christian virtue, has no one among Christian Greeks, not to mention among the Latins, who is superior or even equal to him in gravity.
