English to Tigrinya: Antiquities of the Jews
Source text - English AD 388 – In this year, Christians burned down a synagogue in the city of Callincum on the Euphrates River near the modern-day city of Ar-Raqqah in north central Syria. The local bishop encouraged the burning. When the local civic ruler sent a letter to Emperor Theodosius I to ask that he issue a decree that the bishop make res titution and rebuild the synagogue, Archbishop Ambrose of Milan, often known as Saint Ambrose, intervened and sent his own letter to the emperor, arguing that the order of restitution should be rescinded. He contended that if the bishop obeyed the emperor and gave the Jews the justice they sought, he would become an apostate. He also argued that if the synagogue was rebuilt, it would mean that the Jews had triumphed over the local Christians, which was entirely unacceptable. Ambrose’s letter reads as follows:
Ambrose, Bishop, to the Most Clement Prince, and Blessed Emperor, Theodosius the Augustus. A report was made by the military Count of the East that a synagogue had been burnt and that this was done by the authority of the Bishop. You gave command that the perpetrators should be punished and the synagogue be rebuilt by the Bishop himself. . . . Are you not afraid, O Emperor, that he may comply with your sentence; do you not fear that he may fail in his faith? . . . Which, then, is of greater importance, the show of legal discipline or the cause of religion? It is needful that legal censure should yield to religion. There is, then, no adequate cause for such a commotion, that the people should be punished so severely for the burning of a building; and much less since it is the burning of a synagogue, a home of unbelief, a house of impiety, a receptacle of folly which God himself has condemned. . . . Will you give this triumph over the Church of God to the Jews? This victory over Christ’s people? This exultation, O Emperor, to the unbelievers? This rejoicing to the Synagogue, this sorrow to the Church?
