What title does Bede NOT have?
The Enlightened
The Venerable
The Scholarly
The Magnificent
Answer
Bede does not hold the title of "The Venerable" due to his youth and relatively low ecclesiastical rank at the time of his death. Bede's reputation did not truly blossom until the centuries after his death when his scholarly contributions gained widespread recognition. The title of "The Venerable" was formally conferred upon him in the 9th century, almost 150 years after his passing.
