Manuscript No. 7: Commentaries on the Song of Songs

Description:
The codex is a copy of the Armenian translation of teh "Commentary on the Cantica Canticorum" by Cornelius a Lapide ( 1567-1637), also known as Cornelius Cornelissen van den Steen, Flemish exegete. The book also contains another commentary on the Song of Songs by an unknown author.Cornelius a Lapide was born at Bocholt near Liege, and was educated at the Jesuit colleges of Maastricht and Cologne. IN 1592 he entered the Jesuit order, and became professor of exegesis at Louvain in 1596. In 1616 he was called to Rome, where he taught the same subject and completed his celebrated commentaries, comprising all the Canonical Books except Job and the Psalms. “His works, which have enjoyed enduring popularity, are characterized by their clarity, deep spirituality, and allegorical and mystical exegesis”; his wide erudition enabled him to draw extensively on the Church Fathers and on medieval theologians.
