saint bede the venerable
St. Bede the Venerable, Bede also spelled Baeda or Beda, (born 672/673, traditionally Monkton in Jarrow, Northumbria. He was an Anglo-Saxon Theologian, historian, and chronologist.
St. Bede is best known for his Historia Ecclesiastica Gentis Anglorum (“Ecclesiastical History of the
English People”), a source vital to the history of the conversion to Christianity of the Anglo-Saxon tribes. During his lifetime and throughout the Middle Ages, Bede’s reputation was based mainly on his scriptural commentaries, copies of which found their way to many of the monastic libraries of western Europe.
The method of dating events from the time of Christ’s birth, i.e., AD (Anno Domini, “In the year of our Lord”) came into general use through the popularity of the Historia Ecclesiastica and the two works on chronology.
Bede’s influence was perpetuated at home through the school founded at York by his pupil Archbishop Egbert of York and was transmitted to the rest of Europe by Alcuin, who studied there before becoming master of Charlemagne’s palace school at Aachen.
Nothing is known of Bede’s parentage. At the age of seven he was taken to the Monastery of Saint Peter at Monkwearmouth (near Sunderland), founded by Abbot Saint Benedict Biscop, to whose care he was entrusted. By 685 he had been moved to the new, second house of the Abbey founded by Biscop, the Monastery of Saint Paul at Jarrow. Bede was ordained a deacon when 19 years old and priest when 30. Apart from visits to Lindisfarne and York, he seems never to have left Monkwearmouth-Jarrow. Buried at Jarrow, his remains were removed to Durham and are now entombed in the Galilee Chapel of Durham Cathedral.
He died May 25th 735 at Jarrow and was canonized in 1899.
