The Death of the Virgin Mary According to St. John Damascene (original) (raw)

2020

Abstract

This article seeks to highlight the doctrine of St. John Damascene about the Death and Assumption of the Virgin Mary. To expose his thoughts as completely as possible, we analyze in detail three homilies that this syrian author produced on these topics. We can see in them that the Damascene, even assuming many elements from the Jerosolimitan oral tradition and certain apocryphal writings, adduces some very original theological arguments to try to demonstrate the Assumption of Mary in body and soul to heaven.
