EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the dramatic moment during a sermon by Saint Ambrose, Bishop of Milan (339-397), as a heretic follower of Arius is visited by an angel. The scene unfolds in the bustling city of Milan during a time of religious turmoil, as the Arian heresy, which denied the divinity of Christ, threatened the unity of the Christian faith. Ambrose, a renowned theologian and eloquent speaker, is depicted in the foreground, passionately preaching to a captivated audience. His fiery words challenge the heretic's beliefs, and the intensity of the moment is heightened by the presence of the angel in the background. The heretic, with a look of amazement and confusion, turns towards the ethereal figure, as if seeking an answer to the divine truth. The angel, in turn, whispers the words of Ambrose's sermon into the heretic's ear, emphasizing the divine inspiration behind the Bishop's teachings. This powerful image not only illustrates the spiritual struggle between the orthodox and heretic factions during this pivotal period in Christian history but also underscores the profound impact of Ambrose's leadership and oratorical skills. The angel's intervention serves as a reminder of the divine guidance that sustained the early Christian Church, providing strength and wisdom to its leaders in times of challenge and uncertainty.
