Editor Francis Martin collects patristic comment on the text of Acts in this volume of the ACCS. The Acts of the Apostles--or more in keeping with the author's intent, the Acts of the Ascended Lord--is part two of Luke's story of "all that Jesus began to do and teach."

While at least forty early church authors commented on Acts, the works of only three survive in their entirety--John Chrysostom'sHomilies on the Acts of the Apostles, Bede the...

If Jules Verne was alive today he might very well write this book, which deals both with science and the courage and determination that is needed to further it. As President Borros says in his speech shortly before the test, "Knowledge is gained by success or failure, so there is only failure if we fail to learn. Let us go forth into the unknown as one, united in this effort to extend man's presence into the...
