Definition: The term "Albertist" comes from the Bible, where it refers to a type of person who was associated with a religious tradition or philosophy that placed great importance on the study of ancient Greek texts and their interpretation by the early Christian Church. This tradition is characterized by its emphasis on the study of classical literature, including poetry, drama, and philosophy, as well as the use of allegorical figures to interpret stories from the Bible. The term "Albertist" signifies those who were deeply committed to the belief that ancient Greek texts contained the truth about God and the world. They believed in the divine revelation, which they interpreted through reading and understanding the texts. In this context, one can understand Albertists as scholars or interpreters of classical literature who sought to interpret the Bible as part of their spiritual tradition. The term was used by Christians during the early centuries of Christianity, especially those adhering to the so-called "Apocrypha" (essentially books not found in the New Testament) and the "New Testament" which they believed were inspired by God. The use of "Albertist" as a label for these people reflects their emphasis on the spiritual significance of ancient Greek texts. In summary, the term "Albertist" is associated with scholars who held a belief that ancient Greek texts, especially those found in the New Testament, provided an integral part of Christian tradition.
