James Barr on Etymology
//The main point is that the etymology of a word is not a statement about its meaning but about its history; it is only as a historical statement that it can be responsibly asserted, and it is quite wrong to suppose that the etymology of a word is necessarily a guide either to its ‘proper’ meaning in a later period or to its actual meaning in that period.//
~James Barr, Semantics of Biblical Languages
John P. Meier, 1942-2022
Msgr. Meier, died Oct. 18 at the age of 80.
He was born in New York City in 1942 and received his undergraduate theological training at St. Joseph’s Seminary in Yonkers, followed by graduate studies at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome. He was ordained to the priesthood in 1967.
His first assignment was as an associate pastor. But by 1972, he had returned to St. Joseph’s Seminary, this time as a professor and soon afterward he returned to Rome to obtain a doctorate in sacred Scripture in 1976 from the Pontifical Biblical Institute.
He led the seminary’s Scripture studies department before taking on a professorship at The Catholic University of America in Washington, in 1984. He taught there for 14 years before moving on the University of Notre Dame in 1998.
Msgr. Meier retired in 2018 after 20 years in Notre Dame’s theology department, but he stayed on campus to take on occasional teaching assignments and to continue his research and writing.
"A Marginal Jew" are my favourite Jesus books.
