Eight Homilies Against the Jews comprises late fourth-century Antiochene sermons in which John Chrysostom chastises Christians who visited synagogues and observed Jewish festivals. Blending expository exegesis with courtroom invective, he wields Pauline argument, Septuagint proof-texts, typology, and relentless anaphora to assert Christian supersession and deter 'judaizing'. The homilies are pastoral performances as much as polemics, framed by a Christianizing empire in which urban congregations negotiated proximity to Jews and God-fearers. Trained by the pagan rhetor Libanius and seasoned by ascetic discipline, Chrysostom, later archbishop of Constantinople, brought classical technique to pastoral crisis. In Antioch he faced Christians drawn to synagogue liturgy, shared festivals, and healing rites; coupled with new imperial laws and his reformist zeal, these pressures sharpened his boundary-policing tone. The homilies join his wider program of moral admonition and biblical commentary aimed at consolidating Christian identity. Students of late antique religion, patristic rhetoric, and Jewish-Christian relations should read this volume critically yet attentively. While ethically troubling, it is crucial for understanding how preaching shaped doctrine, discipline, and intercommunal hostilities. Use with a scholarly translation and robust historical commentary.
