No English translation located. HOLLIS Primo 'Theodoret de caritate', 'Theodoret on charity' and 'Theodoret divine charity' (2026-11-13) return no English rendering; the only translation of the piece found is the 1740 French collection 'De la providence [en dix discours] et Discours de la divine charite'. The piece is printed in Migne PG 82, whose archive.org contents note lists 'Oratio de Divina et Sancta Charitate' alongside the Pauline commentary and the two Histories. It is not among the Theodoret titles that HOLLIS records in English (Providence, Cure of the Greek Maladies, Eranistes, Letters, the prophet commentaries, Psalms, Paul, the Octateuch Questions, Church History, Historia Religiosa), and no volume in Fathers of the Church, Ancient Christian Writers or Popular Patristics contains it.
A short discourse on charity; absence of an English version is an inference from catalogue silence plus the list of Theodoret titles that HOLLIS records in English (Providence, Cure of the Greek Maladies, Eranistes, the Letters, the prophet commentaries, Psalms, Paul, the Octateuch Questions, Church History, Historia Religiosa), so treat the status as 'none located' rather than as a documented statement that no translation has ever been printed. The Migne volume is shared with the Pauline commentary and the Church History, so the scan is easy to use.
