SectionJeromePublic domain

A short but most friendly letter in which Jerome excuses himself for the freedom with which he has dealt with Augustine’s questions (the allusion is to Letter CXII.) and hopes that henceforth they may be able to avoid controversy and to labour like brothers in the field of scripture.

Written probably in 405 a.d.

Reproduced in full. Translation: Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, series 2, vol. 6 (Schaff and Wace, 1893), public domain (Public domain).
