Peter and Paul ad catacumbas : a pozzolana mine reconsidered
No full textThe site and excavations of S. Sebastiano at the third mile of the via Appia has been discussed in literally hundreds of publications due to its importance for our understanding of the cult of the martyr saints Peter and Paul. It is a major focus of my larger project, which examines the relationship between early Christians and their non- Christian surroundings through the study of the interaction between different social groups in a small but intensively used part of the Roman suburbium, generously funded by the Leverhulme foundation.1 The present paper can only outline one element of the larger argument. I shall start with a brief overview of the history of the site, then discuss the most popular interpretation offered for the cult of the apostles Peter and Paul at this location, and finally present some of my own readings of the remains in their wider context
Moral Good, the Beatific Vision, and God’s Kingdom Writings by Germain Grisez and Peter Ryan, S.J.. Edited by Peter J. Weigel
No full textFor close to half a century, the work of Germain Grisez has been highly influential, and his writings continue to receive considerable attention from philosophers and theologians of diverse viewpoints. His co-author for this work is the professor and noted moral theologian Fr. Peter Ryan, S.J., currently the executive director of the Secretariat of Doctrine and Canonical Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). These two eminent scholars explore fundamental questions about Christian eschatology, moral theory, the purpose of human life, and the promise of human fulfilment. The authors examine Christian teaching on the final destiny of persons, investigating the meaning of God's kingdom, the hope of the beatific vision, and the centrality of moral goodness and divine grace in one's final end. This work is an ideal source for students, scholars, ministers and lay persons interested in basic questions of Christian theology, the philosophy of religion, ethical theory, and Catholic doctrin

The True Burial Site of Peter and Paul? Christians and Jews on the Appian Way
No full textDespite the current catholic orthodoxy that the original burial sites of the martyr
saints Peter and Paul were where they are still venerated – underneath their churches
on the Vatican hill and on the Via Ostiense – a controversy still surrounds an
enigmatic site at the third milestone of the Appian Way. The present, 17th-century
church of Saint Sebastian was built over an early, simple cult site for the apostles and
a 4th-century Basilica Apostolorum. Based on archaeological evidence, I will argue
that it was here, in a former pozzolana mine, that the apostles were believed to have
been buried from at least the 2nd century onwards, and trace how their cult developed
from ordinary funerary cult to martyr cult
