| Summary |
"Il Vanzeli di Mateo" by Ermes Culòs is a translation of the Gospel of Matthew into Friulian, composed in the early 21st century. This work not only serves as a religious text but also aims to preserve the Friulian language, which is at risk of fading away as larger languages dominate. The translation strives to reflect the simple and humble language that Jesus and his disciples would have used, making the spiritual messages accessible to a modern audience while honoring regional cultural heritage. The opening of "Il Vanzeli di Mateo" presents an introductory note where the author discusses the significance of translating biblical texts into lesser-known languages like Friulian. Culòs stresses that this translation is not merely about linguistic preservation but also about capturing the essence of the original messages conveyed by Jesus. The text begins with the genealogy of Jesus, detailing his lineage from David and Abraham, and swiftly leads into narratives of his miraculous birth, encounters with the Magi, and the early days of his ministry. This foundational section sets the stage for understanding Jesus' origins and the events leading to his teachings and works. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
