Claudius of Turin: "Commentary on Philemon"
Claudius of Turin (d. 827) was an iconoclastic bishop during the reign of Emperor Louis the Pious. Besides a Chronicle of world history, all of Claudius' works were biblical commentaries, his most important being a long Commentary on Genesis and his two Commentaries on 1 and 2 Corinthians, in which he most thoroughly expressed his iconoclastic views, as well as his views denigrating papal supremacy.
The Commentary on Philemon is one of a number of texts unearthed by Cardinal Angelo Mai (1782-1854) through analyzing he original text of palimpsests (manuscripts which had been erased and reused, but which still bore traces of their original writing).
Due to the length of this work, I have uploaded it as a paper on Academia.edu rather than posting the full text here; once the Internet Archive is back up and running, I will upload a copy there as well.
