Cornelius on the death of Antiochus IV in the books of Maccabees

    The Death of Antiochus IV 1 Maccabees 6 ET REX ANTIOCHUS.) Epiphanes cum quo hucusque Iudæ et Iudæis fuit contentio et bellum. Hic ergo perrexit ELMAIDEM, quæ alio nomine dicta est Persepolis, id est Persarum civitas, imo metropolis, 2. Machab. 9. ut expilaret TEMPLUM IN EA LOCUPLES, Veneri dicatum; sed a civibus fuit repulsus. Hebræi enim Persiam vocant Elam, unde Elamitas appellant Persas, et Elymaidam, quam Græci vocant Persepolim. Sic Hebr. Bethsames a Græcis vocatur Heliopolis, a Latinis civitas solis. Sic Simon Hebr. vocatur Chananæus, Græce Zelotes, Latine Æmulator. Porro templum hoc Veneri fuisse dicatum asserit Appianus, licet Ioseph. et S. Hier. in c. 8. Daniel. putent fuisse Dianæ, Iustinus vero libr. 32. Iovis Dindymæi. REVERSUS EST IN BABYLONIAM.)

Translation of Cornelius Lapide

 My intention with this blog is to give previews into my work in providing the Latin and English (generated) translation of Cornelius' commentaries that are not translated into English. On most website you only find about half of the NT. I am working now on the letter of James, it is very slow and tedious. I've worked a about an hour a day for a month and I am only at about 1:14! AI OCR is still not sophisticated enough read Latin text with a "gutter" so I have to split the pages in half which is very time consuming.  Since the work is so time consuming despite the help of AI I am planning on selling the book for a few dollars on Amazon.

1 Timothy 2:15 saved by child bearing

I have been working to provide the missing translation of Lapide for Epistles, recently I got into a debate with a Protestant who used the word "saved" in 1 Timothy 2:15 as an excuse as to why 1 Peter 3:21 doesn't mean "saved from sin" in regard to baptism. The passage would be considered sexist by modern sensibilities! Below is a generated translate of 1 Timothy 2:15 by Cornelius Lapide, SJ. Latin English 15. SALVABITUR AUTEM PER FILIORUM GENERATIONEM, SI PERMANSERIT IN FIDE ET DILECTIONE, ET SANCTIFICATIONE CUM SOBRIETATE.] S. Thomas voculam per, vult significare non meritum, sed conditionem. q. d. Salvabitur mulier etiamsi non sit virgo, sed nubat, et incedat per statum matrimonii, ac filiorum generationem. Unde Vatabl. vertit, salvabitur mulier subjecta generationi filiorum. Ut sit græcismus, διὰ [τῆς] τεκνογονίας, id est, τεκνογονουσα, per filiorum generationem, id est filios generans, vel in filiorum generatione salvabitur. Si...
