|txtha=([[θεολόγος]]) θεολογου, ὁ (Θεός and [[λέγω]]), in Greek writings (from [[Aristotle]] on) [[one]] [[who]] speaks (treats) of the gods and [[divine]] things, versed in [[sacred]] [[science]]; (Grossmann, Quaestiones Philoneae, i., p. 8, shows [[that]] the [[word]] is used [[also]] by [[Philo]], [[especially]] of Moses (cf. de praem. et poen. § 9)). This [[title]] is given to John in the [[inscription]] of the Apocalypse, according to the [[text]], [[apparently]] as the publisher and [[interpreter]] of [[divine]] oracles, [[just]] as Lucian styles the [[same]] [[person]] [[θεολόγος]] in Alex. 19 [[that]] he calls [[προφήτης]] in c. 22. The [[common]] [[opinion]] is [[that]] John [[was]] called [[θεολόγος]] in the [[same]] [[sense]] in [[which]] the [[term]] [[was]] used of Gregory of Nazianzus, viz. [[because]] he taught the [[θεότης]] of the [[λόγος]]. But [[then]] the [[wonder]] Isaiah , [[why]] the copyists did [[not]] [[prefer]] to [[apply]] the epithet to him in the [[title]] of the Gospel. | |||
