Saint Bible

What was so special about the Tyndale Bible? How does it sound to us today? The first text of the Bible to be printed in English was the New Testament of William Tyndale, published in 1525-6. Its repercussions lasted for almost a century, stimulated by the religious intolerances of the age, and Tyndale's influence can be seen in most of the Bible translations over the next 100 years, not least in the language of the King James Bible of 1611 - as this recording of Saint Matthew’s Gospel in the pronunciation of Tyndale’s own time makes vividly clear.

Mary Magdalene is one of the most influential symbols in the history of Christianity - yet, if you look in the Bible, you'll find only a handful of verses that speak of her. How did she become such a compelling saint in the face of such paltry evidence? In her effort to answer that question, Cynthia Bourgeault examines the Bible, church tradition, art, legend, and newly discovered texts to see what's there.

Anne Catherine Emmerich was born in Germany in 1774. As a child she believed that angels, saints, and the Holy Family visited and talked with her as she worked in the fields. At twenty-four, she had her first mystic vision of the sufferings of Christ, accompanied by stigmata and bleeding as if from the crown of thorns. At twenty-nine, she became an Augustinian nun and continued to have visions and stigmata. In her visions, she recounted scenes from the life of Christ, which she seemed to have witnessed.

Paroles simples, concrètes, partant toujours de l'observation simple de la vie des hommes et des femmes et révélant ce qui se trouve ainsi enfoui dans le cœur des personnes humaines. Tantôt il s'adresse à la foule, tantôt à ceux qui croient en lui. Ici Jésus donne des conseils à ses apôtres, là il invective ceux qui regardent seulement les apparences et jugent de l'extérieur.

L'"Évangile selon Marc" forme, avec les trois autres évangiles, le cœur du Nouveau Testament, la partie la plus récente de la Bible chrétienne. Dès le prologue, Jésus nous est présenté comme le Messie, le Fils de Dieu. Poussé au désert par l'Esprit, Jésus se prépare à affronter son ennemi principal : Satan. Mais les anges le servent, et les bêtes sont témoins. Le Nouveau Souverain s'avance souverainement dans sa patrie, la Galilée. Il désigne ses premiers disciples, qui seront ses ministres. Il chasse les démons. Il parcourt toute la Galilée.

L'"Évangile selon Jean" est le dernier des quatre Évangiles canoniques du Nouveau Testament. La tradition chrétienne l'a attribué à l'un des disciples de Jésus, l'apôtre Jean, fils de Zébédée. L'évangile est constitué d'un prologue - qui commence par le célèbre "Au commencement était le Verbe, et le Verbe était avec Dieu, et le Verbe était Dieu" - et d'un épilogue. Ce prologue et cet épilogue encadrent le récit proprement dit, composé de deux grandes parties : respectivement la révélation du Christ devant le monde et la révélation du Christ.

L'"Évangile selon Luc" est le troisième des quatre Évangiles canoniques. La tradition chrétienne lui attribue pour auteur le personnage appelé "Luc le bon médecin" dans certaines lettres de Paul de Tarse. Comme l'Évangile selon Marc, son texte se présente comme une biographie de Jésus de Nazareth. La généalogie de Jésus, dans l'évangile selon Saint Luc, est une généalogie ascendante, de Jésus à Adam, père de l'humanité, et passant par Nathan, autre fils de David.
