| dc.description.abstract | Chromatius, the bishop of Aquileia in Northern Italy, wrote a lengthy commentary on the Gospel of Matthew (Tractatus in Mathaeum) in the second half of the 4th century. A good part of the work was lost, and what survived was wrongly attributed to John Chrysostom until the 20th century. This article identifies those Eastern and Western patristic authors who influenced Chromatius, especially in his allegorical typological exegesis. Subsequently, the history of origin and the text tradition of the work are presented, followed by a brief introduction to the structure and style of the tractates. Chromatius uses the two-level Scripture interpretation method in this work. He typically gives a literal interpretation first, then associates a second, spiritual level, which is key to Christology or ecclesiology, and when opportune, some moral opinion is also added. The originality of the Tractatus in Mathaeum is not outstanding as they conform to the cultural and exegetical trends of the 4th century creating a synthesis of the Western theological and scriptural interpretation traditions. Their author successfully presents the essential contents of the Gospel in such a way that insists on doctrinal authenticity throughout. | |
