Summary: | The prologue of the Letter by Severus of Minorca (Seu. Min. ep.) is regarded as exemplary in the late-ancient hagiography. Nevertheless, this document is not hagiographic. It narrates how the arrival of St Stephen’s relics led to a campaign against the Jews of Magona, who had been incorporated into the Catholic Christian Church. According to Tb 12, 7, these wonderful events should be spread throught Christendom. It is known that the lay theologian Consentius took part in the events and in the writing of the Minorcan document. The Seu. Min. ep. should raise a similar enthusiasm to the one in Minorca, so as to convert the Jews of the World. This fact contrasts with the priscilianists’ excessive secrecy. They manipulated the Apocryphal Acts of St John, also inspired in Tb 12, 7, according to St Augustine, ep. 237, to bishop Ceretius of an unknown see (Grenoble ?). The interrelation between these documents is the target of this essay. |
