Synopsis	Cornelius aLapide, S.J. (1568-1637) is a giant figure in the history of Catholic biblical interpretation. Born in a tiny Catholic enclave in the Calvinist Netherlands in the bloody generation after the Reformation, Lapide grew to be one of the Church¿s most gifted scholars and spiritual interpreters of the sacred page. Between 1614 and 1645, Lapide wrote commentaries on every book of Scripture except Job and Psalms. To read Lapide four hundred years later is to enter a nearly forgotten world of biblical interpretation ...more striking ¿ the sheer breadth and density of Lapide¿s interpretative matrix or his audacity in summoning all these resources to the interpretation of the sacred text. Lapide himself takes a breathtaking high view of Scripture¿s purpose: Lapide prefaces his commentary with thirty-eight ¿canons of interpretation,¿ which reflect a wise and prayerful method. ¿ It is clear that the Fathers hold pride of place for Lapide in his interpretative work.
