 Early Antiochene Commentaries on Exodus

R.B. TER HAAR ROMENY, Leiden

In the coming years, research into the history and method of the Antiochene
School may be expected to focus more on the first books of the Bible'. New
perspectives are being opened by Françoise Petit's editions of the Catena on
Genesis2 and the Collectie Coisliniana*, while Hovhannessian's edition of an
Armenian translation of Eusebius of Emesa's Commentary on the Octateuch is
also deserving of mention here4. The latter text gives us the opportunity to
examine a complete Antiochene commentary on the first parts of the Old Tes-
tament, written by one of the first concrete representatives of the Antiochene
School. Moreover, it enables us to better evaluate the collection of fragments
in the Catena, and to identify a number of extracts in Procopius's ejUTO|if| and
in the commentary of the ninth-century Syrian exegete ISo'dad of Merv, who
had independent access to Eusebius's work'.
As Mile Petit will be addressing this conference on her research into the
Greek Catena on Exodus6,1 should like to present here the Exodus part of this
Armenian text7. Until recently, only the Greek fragments of Eusebius of Emesa,

 Early Antiochene Commentaries on Exodus 115

Acacius of Caesarea, and Diodore of Tarsus were known from the fourth-cen-
tury Antiochene School. The Armenian translation of Eusebius's commentary
enables us to broach the following questions: To which genre does his com-
mentary belong? How does an Antiochene exegete like Eusebius deal with the
various narrative and legislative parts of the book of Exodus? And finally, what
is the place of his commentary in the wider context of early8 Antiochene
exegesis?

Eusebius's Commentary on Exodus

With respect to genre, the Genesis part of Eusebius's Commentary on the

Octateuch is a selective commentary. As it deals with only a limited number
of difficult passages, this type of commentary is less extensive than the full
commentary, which examines each and every phrase. It is closely related to the
genre of the Çriirmaia Kai Xûaevç9. In fact, Eusebius's commentary should
probably be identified with the collection of rcis^re"! (Cr|Tf|uaTa) on the Old
Testament mentioned by 'AbdisV bar Brika (early fourteenth century) in his
catalogue of the writings of the Fathers10.
The first half of the Exodus part of the Commentary, dealing with Exod 1 -
6, also fits into this genre. Eusebius closely follows the order of the book,
selecting certain passages for discussion. His methods are typical of the Anti-
ochene School11. He strives to uncover the meaning of the text on a historical,

in the Armenian translation. In this respect, the situations in Genesis and Exodus differ significantly:
in Genesis, there are only a very small number of Greek fragments with a clear attribution to Euse-
bius that are not found in the Armenian text. The style betrays some of the Greek fragments on Exo-
dus as being extraneous to the commentary, that is, either they were written by another author, or
they were part of some other work (e.g., ed. Devreesse, pp. 86-91, ad 3:2, 4:24, 4:25 and 4:29).
One fragment should be attributed to Severus of Antioch (ed. Devreesse, p. 93, ad 8:16). In the case
of the group of fragments which centre around Stephen's speech in Acts (ed. Devreesse, pp. 83-85
ad 2:1-10, 2:12-13, 2:15 and 3:1), Eusebius's lost 'Homily on Saint Stephen' springs to mind. —
It is not insignificant that none of the fragments in question are found in Iso'dad. However, if a few
fragments are indeed left which formed part of the commentary, this would not substantially alter
our present picture; the considerable gaps which we will be discussing in a moment remain.

I do not use this term in the sense of the traditional distinction between an 'Early' and a
'Late' Antiochene School. This periodization can no longer be maintained. See my 'Eusebius of
Emesa's Commentary on Genesis and the Origins of the Antiochene School', to be published in
J. Frishman and L. Van Rompay (eds.), The Book of Genesis (see note 1).

On the distinction between these types of commentaries, see Van Rompay, 'Antiochene

factual level; that is, he is interested in the actual events and their sequence,
and in the intention of the writer. He is fully alive to the context, coherence
and logic of the story. Eusebius often paraphrases the text. He also makes use
of passages from other books of the Old Testament in which the same words
are used, or where comparable events take place. He does not allow allegori-
cal explanations, but has found other ways to go beyond the plain sense of the
Greek text. Thus he assumes that Scripture sometimes uses a certain expres-
sion to convey (olicovoueïv) something else, and he accepts a limited number
of typologies. Another device to the same end is the use of readings from '6
Zopoc' and '6 EßpaToc'12. The fact that we do not find as many of these read-
ings here as in the Genesis part of the commentary may have to do with a ten-
dency which is becoming discernible in this part of the commentary and which
is much stronger in the second half. I am referring to the author's tendency to
lose interest in the course of events and in the exact wording of the biblical
text, and to turn to themes of a more universal significance. Thus the phrase
'Who has given man a mouth to speak, or who has made the dumb and the
deaf?' (Exod 4:11) is used as a means of introducing a long discourse on the
origin of disabilities: has God indeed created them, are they a retribution for
our sins? The place of the phrase in the biblical context is not dealt with.
Indeed, from Exod 7 onwards, Eusebius's commentary becomes more and
more thematic. First, he deals only briefly with a few aspects of the plagues,
going on to discuss Pharaoh's hard-heartedness. The work is now coming
close to a homily, its main aim being to explain that God is lenient and indul-
gent. This may be seen as an implicit polemic against the Marcionites, a dis-
pute which is also one of Eusebius's concerns in the commentary on Genesis.
In connection with the discussion of hardening of the heart, Eusebius explains
God's dealings with his people: he discusses dissuasion, retribution, and the
remission of their sins, citing from Exod 19, 20, 24, 32-34 and from other
books of the Bible. This exposition may have awakened Eusebius's interest in
God's revelations to Moses on Mount Sinai: he does not pick up the thread of
the story, but deals first with a few questions on this subject. He asks how

also L. Diestel's classic account in his Geschichte des Alten Testamentes in der christlichen
Kirche (Jena, 1869), pp. 129-141. Although founded on Buytaert's outdated edition of Catena
fragments, J.A. NovotnJ's 'Les fragments exégétiques sur les livres de l'Ancien Testament
d'Eusèbe d'Émèse', OCP 57 (1991), pp. 27-67, is nevertheless a useful review of Eusebius's
exegetical principles.

these revelations took place, when they took place, and why they lasted twice
forty days. After this, he does not return to the episode in the desert, but
decides to deal with some of the laws in the Book of the Covenant. To the end
of the work, the idea that we are reading a homily rather than a commentary
continues to haunt us.
It appears that many chapters in the latter part of Exodus are not dealt with
at all, and, if one were expecting a commentary that follows the course of the
biblical narrative, the commentary would appear quite disordered. I believe
that the explanation for this situation lies in the subject matter of the book of
Exodus. First of all, the same event happens twice: Moses has to go and
receive the law on two different occasions. These two occasions are closely
connected but the chronological order is in fact broken up by the long
description of the Tabernacle and the sacrifices. An exegete may feel called
upon to bring together what seems to have become separated. More impor-
tant, however, is the fact that there are fewer themes of universal interest in
Exodus than in Genesis, with its description of the Creation, the Fall and the
stories of the Patriarchs. As a reader, it is more difficult to identify with the
grumbling people in the desert, than with someone like Abraham. Thus
Eusebius is not interested in the particulars of the trek through the desert, but
rather selects the themes which do have importance for him: the way God
deals with Moses, how He treats sin and, in particular, the fact that all this,
even laws which may seem harsh, demonstrates that God is benevolent and
merciful.
Although one may maintain that the texts are used for purposes of expla-
nation, rather than being explained themselves, this does not mean that Euse-
bius has betrayed the Antiochene principles in the second part of his com-
mentary. The interpretation of the texts he cites, is still restricted to the
historical level as defined above. It is precisely this which explains his lim-
itations: at the historical level, the descriptions of the Tabernacle and the sac-
rifices are not particularly interesting for him as a Christian, and since he
opposes allegorism, he is not able to use these passages for any other purpose.
It is Theodore, more than half a century later, who first couches, it seems, an
allegorical interpretation in an acceptable, that is, typological form, thereby
restoring sense to this passage for the Antiochenes13. We can illustrate this
point by placing the Commentary on Exodus within a wider context. Thus
Origen, whose philological work must have been a source of inspiration for
Eusebius, faithfully follows the order of the book until the desert episode.
Then he selects themes which he finds interesting, abandoning the order of
13

logical interpretation.
118 R.B. TER HAAR ROMENY

the chapters, just as Eusebius does. As an allegorist, however, Origen is able

to use the description of the Tabernacle, and indeed does so14. In its aversion
to allegorism, Ephrem's Commentary on Exodus offers a better parallel to
Eusebius's. Let us therefore take a closer look at this contemporary and fel-
low countryman of his.

Ephrem the Syrian

Ephrem is often dealt with in an appendix to the Antiochene School15, as

his exegesis is in many respects congenial with Antiochene ways16. Like
Eusebius, he keeps to the plain sense in his Commentary on Exodus11, and
more than once, they ask the same questions and give similar answers. He
chooses only six examples from the laws of the Book of the Covenant and
does not appear to be interested in the descriptions of the Tabernacle: chap-
ters 25-31 are condensed to a few lines18. Moreover, both Eusebius and
Ephrem tenaciously defend human free will. Yet there are certain differ-
ences. The genre of Ephrem's commentary is not found among the Anti-
ochenes. It is a kind of selective commentary, but one does not get the
impression that he has skipped anything: rather it is a paraphrase of the nar-
rative parts of Exodus, following the order of the book quite closely. There
is no place for the philological interests which we find in Antiochene com-
mentaries. All this results in a text that may be read on its own, without the
biblical text at hand. Ephrem often fills the gaps in the narrative with
aggadic material, some of which can also be found in Jewish sources. We
sense among the Antiochenes a growing aversion to these traditions. In
closing, let us now turn to two fourth-century exegetes who wrote on Exo-
dus and are seen as full representatives of this Antiochene School, Acacius
and Diodore.

The last part of the commentary has always been thought lost, but in keeping with the fore-
going, we may perhaps assume that Exod 35-40 was not dealt with at all.
 Early Antiochene Commentaries on Exodus 119

Acacius of Caesarea

There is very little on which to assess the relation between Eusebius and
Acacius in Exodus: Devreesse19 gives only two fragments of the work of the
latter. If these two texts, probably taken from a book of auu-niKta CrjtfiuaTa,
are representative of his work, we may conclude that he was interested in the
same topics as Eusebius: he goes into the matter of Pharaoh's hard-heartedness,
and also refers to the retribution of errors in connection with Exod 20:5-6.
There are also many similarities in the method and the questions asked. In the
text on retribution, for example, Eusebius and Acacius cite largely the same
texts from Ezekiel and Deuteronomy. Yet their answers are not completely the
same: Eusebius places greater stress on individual human responsibility than
Acacius does. The similarities in the problems posed and the method may be
due to the fact that they had the same teacher, Eusebius of Caesarea.

Diodore of Tarsus

Jerome called Diodore a follower of Eusebius of Emesa, and indeed, we

now know that for his commentary on Genesis, Diodore depended heavily on
Eusebius20. In the thirteen preserved fragments on Exodus21, Diodore seems to
be more independent. His subject matter is still roughly the same as that of
Eusebius, and again he can be shown to have used the Emesene's work in a
few instances22, but we find no texts that have simply been copied, as is regu-
larly the case in Genesis.

Conclusion

Eusebius often uses the expression 'some say...others...'. Although in some

cases this may be no more than a rhetorical device, it still raises the question
of his predecessors. However, unless new texts are found, the study of the var-
ious witnesses of Eusebius's Commentary on the Octateuch gives us the earli-
est picture yet of an Antiochene exegete at work — and a very complete one
at that23.
