Of Holy Virginity-Saint Augustine of Hippo

from Against Jovinianus · host Saint Jerome

"Of Holy Virginity" by Saint Augustine of Hippo explores the profound spiritual significance of virginity within the context of Christian faith. Augustine articulates the value of a life dedicated to God, emphasizing that such a commitment transcends earthly pleasures and societal norms. This work remains relevant today as it invites listeners to reflect on the nature of devotion, self-discipline, and the pursuit of holiness in a world often distracted by transient desires. Augustine's eloquent defense of virginity as a noble and spiritually enriching choice continues to inspire discussions about faith, purity, and the complexities of human relationships, making it an enduring classic in Christian literature.

Much like you and I, these biblical heroes loved, loathed, coveted, and knew the gut-wrenching pangs of heartbreak.The ”Biblical Times Podcast,” is your portal into the past.

Only in his mid-twenties, he was given command of the Roman forces in Spain after his father and uncle had been killed there in battle. Tactically brilliant and innovative, he was also a master of grand strategy, winning key Spanish and African allies by his integrity and diplomatic skill. After defeating Hannibal's brothers in Spain, he was victorious over Hannibal in Africa at the Battle of Zama, famously funneling the Carthaginian war elephants through gaps between the Roman ranks and then turning them against the cavalry on the wings of Hannibal's army. (Summary by Pamela Nagami, M.D.)
