Abstract

This article offers a complete study of the biblical and patristic sources of the two books of Isidore of Seville’s De fide catholica contra Iudaeos (CPL 1198), composed around 612-617. The author has recourse, above all, to the biblical commentaries of Jerome of Stridon, Augustine of Hippo and Origen of Alexandria; or to the treatises on the Trinity of Hilary of Poitiers, Novatian or the Hispanic Ps. Eusebius of Vercelli. But alongside these works, other lesser-known sources in Visigothic Spain can be found, such as the De spiritu et littera (CPL 343) of Augustine of Hippo and, perhaps, the Commentarii
in euangelia (CPL 104) of Fortunatianus of Aquileia. In addition, we point out those expressions of the De fide catholica contra Iudaeos that can be read in some other works of Isidore of Seville, especially the exegetical treatises, such as the Quaestiones in Vetus Testamentum (CPL 1195), the Allegoriae quaedam sanctae Scripturae (CPL 1190) or the De ortu et obitu patrum (CPL 1191).
