Severianus of Gabala's use and interpretation of the Letter to the Colossians

Reading Colossians in the Early Church

Leuven, 9. Dezember 2024

My paper explores Severianus's use of Colossians in his homilies (transmitted in direct tradition) and in the fragments attributed to him in Catena tradition. By analyzing these texts, I aim to present Severianus' interpretation in comparison to contemporary authors and shed light on his contribution to Christian exegetical scholarship.
