The Venerable Bede (673-735)

Bede became a monk and was ordained at age thirty. He devoted himself to the study of Scripture and to teaching and writing. He is considered one of the most learned men of his time and a major influence on English literature. He wrote commentaries on the Pentateuch and various other books of the Bible, theological and scientific treatises, historical works, and biographies. His best known work is Historia Ecclesiastica, a history of the English church and people. Called “the Venerable” to acknowledge his wisdom and learning, the title was formalized at the Council of Aachen in 853. He was a careful scholar and has been called the “father” of English history, the first to date events Anno Domini (A.D.)
