Key Notes
Jiang says Titus is the general who destroys the Jewish rebellion and burns the Second Temple, and he adds that the Catholic Church taught people in Dante's period to see this as vengeance for the Jews' betrayal of Jesus.
Jiang dates Statius to the era of Titus, shortly after Jesus's death and after the destruction of the Second Temple, to emphasize how early this Virgilian literary devotion sits inside Christian chronology.

Paradise first appears as receptivity rather than rank, then the lecture widens into vows, memory, resurrection, original sin, and Jiang's culminating wager that God created humanity because perfection alone cannot imagine.
The lecture begins with Augustine's dusty human nature and ends with Virgil fleeing the proof that Dante's love is stronger than obedience.
