In the face of continued debates about Christian supersessionism with regard to Judaism, this article revisits two texts which have been thought to display the harshest anti-temple attitudes in the New Testament: Stephen’s speech in Acts 7, and the Letter to the Hebrews. Many scholars believe these two texts are connected, and a perceived anti-cultic attitude forms one of the key alleged similarities between the two. The article first examines shared lexical and conceptual points between the two texts, affirming their proximity. It then examines each text’s cult attitude in turn. Stephen portrays the temple as divinely given yet always subordinate to God’s heavenly presence. Hebrews frames deficiencies in the Levitical cultus as divinely intended in light of the heavenly tabernacle. These texts therefore do not condemn but instead relativize Israel’s earthly sanctuary/ies, in keeping with themes in Israel’s Scriptures, and thus should not be regarded as supsersessionist.

This article analyses the hermeneutic dispute of the contemporary value of medieval aesthetics within the writing of two giants in the 20th century—Umberto Eco and Hans Urs von Balthasar. I claim that Eco’s Joycean adaptation of medieval aesthetics uses religious language to insert a permanent, postmodern aesthetic dismantling of cosmic form. I argue that Balthasar’s reading of Dante challenges the limits that Eco frames as inherent within the medieval cosmos, and that Balthasar offers an adaptive medieval aesthetics that rebuts the religious overhaul Eco demands. This debate amplifies the flexibility of aesthetics based on form to attune to contemporary concerns while remaining faithful to the fundamental religious commitments of Christian tradition.
本文分析了 20 世纪两位巨匠--翁贝托-艾柯（Umberto Eco）和汉斯-乌尔斯-冯-巴尔塔萨（Hans Urs von Balthasar）--的著作中关于中世纪美学的当代价值的诠释学争议。我认为，艾柯对中世纪美学的乔伊斯式改编使用了宗教语言，插入了对宇宙形式的永久性后现代美学解构。我认为，巴尔塔萨对但丁的解读挑战了艾柯认为中世纪宇宙固有的局限性，巴尔塔萨提供了一种适应性的中世纪美学，反驳了艾柯所要求的宗教大改革。这场辩论扩大了以形式为基础的美学的灵活性，在忠实于基督教传统的基本宗教承诺的同时，也适应了当代的关切。

This article explores Herbert McCabe’s work on the development of doctrine. It contends that he provides a perspective that helps theologians move beyond the stale disputes that identify one’s position on this subject as either ‘conservative’ or ‘progressive.’ In light of his notion of the nature of tradition and use of the concept of a revolution, he is able to argue that the Church’s ongoing reception of her deposit of faith is both a radical and conversative process. By implication, his portrait of this process enables Catholic theologians to carry out their work with academic freedom and joyful wonder.
