Information: - Biblical Hebrew ("Ivrit Miqra'it" or "Leshon ha-Miqra"), also called Classical Hebrew, is an archaic form of Hebrew, a Canaanite Semitic language spoken by the Israelites in the area known as Israel, roughly west of the Jordan River and east of the Mediterranean Sea. The term "Hebrew" was not used for the language in the Bible, which was referred to as Canaanite or Judahite, but the name was used in Greek and Mishnaic Hebrew texts. Biblical Hebrew is attested from about the 10th centuryBCE, and persisted through and beyond the Second Temple period, which ended in the siege of Jerusalem (AD 70). - Calcidius ( or Chalcidius ) was a 4th - century philosopher ( and possibly a Christian ) who translated the first part ( to 53c ) of Plato 's Timaeus from Greek into Latin around the year 321 and provided with it an extensive commentary . This was likely done for Bishop Hosius of Cordoba . Very little is otherwise known of him . His translation of the Timaeus was the only extensive text of Plato known to scholars in the Latin West for approximately 800 years . His commentary also contained useful accounts of Greek astronomical knowledge . In the 12th century commentaries on this work were written by Christian scholars including Hisdosus and philosophers of the Chartres School , such as Thierry of Chartres and William of Conches . Interpreting it in the light of the Christian faith , the academics in the School of Chartres understood the dialogue to refer to creation ex nihilo . - Classical Greece was a period of around 200 years (5th and 4th centuries BC) in Greek culture. This Classical period saw the annexation of much of modern-day Greece by the Persian Empire and its subsequent independence. Classical Greece had a powerful influence on the Roman Empire and on the foundations of western civilization. Much of modern Western politics, artistic thought (architecture, sculpture), scientific thought, theatre, literature, and philosophy derives from this period of Greek history. In the context of the art, architecture, and culture of Ancient Greece, the Classical period, sometimes called the Hellenic period, corresponds to most of the 5th and 4th centuries BC (the most common dates being the fall of the last Athenian tyrant in 510 BC and the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC). The Classical period in this sense follows the Archaic period and is in turn succeeded by the Hellenistic period. - Plato (Greek: "Platn", in Classical Attic; 428/427 or 424/423 348/347 BCE) was a philosopher in Classical Greece and the founder of the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the Western world. He is widely considered the most pivotal figure in the development of philosophy, especially the Western tradition. Unlike nearly all of his philosophical contemporaries, Plato's entire "uvre" is believed to have survived intact for over 2,400 years. - A Christian (or ) is a person who follows or adheres to Christianity, an Abrahamic, monotheistic religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. "Christian" derives from the Koine Greek word "Christos" (), a translation of the Biblical Hebrew term "mashiach". What is the relationship between 'calcidius' and 'roman empire'?
