“Not to speak when we ought is as blameworthy as to speak when we ought not; for silence should not always be kept, nor speech always used, but each at the right time.”

THE DIGITAL SCRIPTORIUM
Human–AI Choreography: Learning a New Alphabet
by Rev. Dr. Eugen J. Pentiuc
Artificial intelligence marks another threshold in the long history of technologies that have reshaped how human beings remember, communicate, create, and understand. The video-poems posted here explore a new alphabet of human–machine cooperation through a human–AI “choreography” grounded. Fr. Eugen J. Pentiuc remains responsible for the biblical exegesis, theological vision, discernment, poem, and creative direction, while generative technologies serve as instruments for giving that vision audiovisual form.

The Didache: A Forgotten Catechism
by Dr. James Skedros
|
|
|
In 1883, scholars of the New Testament and Early Christianity were informed of a remarkable discovery that had occurred ten years earlier in the small treasure-filled library of the Monastery of the Jerusalem Patriarchate located in Constantinople. Known as the Jerusalem Monastery of the Holy Sepulchre, the monastery was located in the area of the Phanar and housed an unassuming library that contained some 400 Greek manuscripts.
