Description
Summary:The first half of “Erkanbert’s” commentary on the Gospel of John consists of his classroom notes taken from lectures by his teacher Rudolf of Fulda, the second half of Erkanbert’s own elaboration of materials provided by Rudolf. The recent partial edition of this commentary by Michael M. Gorman covers Rudolf’s exegesis of John’s Gospel, ch. 1. The editor claims that the Rudolf part doesn’t show any “verbatim citations” from previous exegesis and is therefore to be considered an original work. A comparison with the homiliae devoted to John’s gospel in the Gospel homiliae collections by Gregoy the Great and the Venerable Bede as well as with the standard commentaries on John’s Gospel by Augustine and Alcuin shows that Rudolf relies on this previous exegesis, not only in several striking „verbatim citations“, but also in a number of paraphrases of passages from these exegetical sources. Since Rudolf apparently knew and used these materials, the edited text can also be corrected and improved at places. Although Rudolf’s commentary uses his sources at several places relatively independently, his is not an original exegetical work.
