APRIL, 1848. CHRYSOSTOM: A SKETCH. By the Rev. JOHN EADIE, LL.D. Professor of Biblical Literature to the United Presbyterian Church. A SANCTIFIED charm still surrounds the very name of Chrysostom a charm not dispelled by the lapse of fifteen centuries, for it rests on the number, variety, and richness of his works, the lofty place he held in the Eastern Church, the splendour of his rhetoric, the zeal and intrepidity of his life, and the mournful tale of his exile and death. Whether we view him as a monk, presbyter, or bishop, we are struck with the same distinguishing graces. The archiepiscopal robes covered the same humble heart that received its first training and impulses in the monastic retreats of Antioch. Honours descended on him, uncoveted and unsought, and if they did not add to his happiness, they enlarged, at least, the sphere of his usefulness. The same boldness and unction of appeal on the most solemn of all themes, the same fearlessness and warmth in reproving folly and exposing vice, without respect of rank or opinion, the same intense and unwearied zeal to confer upon his species the last and loftiest of heaven's benefactions-which characterised his labours in the capital of Syria-still distinguished him when removed to Constantinople, where princes and courtiers formed his audience, and when he stood in the midst of the wealth, beauty, and rank of the dissolute metropolis. The humbler conventicles of Syria heard the same gospel, which now rolled in glowing periods beneath the great dome of St. Sophia. Splendour of intellect, mellowness of heart, and exuberance of fancy-such as belong VOL. I.-NO. II. |
