The Cumaean Sibyl as the Revelation-bearer in the Shepherd of Hermas
(Journal of Early Christian Studies; 5 (4) ) 1997 Gormley O'Brien, David
The Shepherd of Hermas was the first Christian work to use the pagan Sibyl motif. The Shepherd adopts not only the figure of the Sibyl but also the voice consonant with the themes used in Jewish and Pagan Sibylline Oracles, namely creation and destruction of the world, in its paranesis for its readers to align itself to the transcendent church.
