==Death==
Even on the day of his death, Bede was still busy dictating a translation of the [[Gospel of John]]. Bede died peacefully in 785 and was buried at Jarrow before being moved inside Durham Cathedral. He was already renowned among his peers, being described by Bishop Boniface as having "shone forth as a lantern in the world by his scriptural commentary." The title Venerable seems to have been associated with him approximately within two generations after his death.
