What’s perfect? A little bit bigger than I thought but still good?
The Ascetical Homilies of Saint Isaac the Syrian are on the life of prayer and stillness-hesychasm- and have been treasured by monastics and layman alike. The book includes an introduction about the Saint's life and the manuscripts of the homilies and the various translations of them, with maps, and Appendices with homilies by Saint Isaac only in the Syriac, a Glossary of special terms, and more. Includes all the homilies by Saint Isaac in the first edition plus two newly translated from the Syriac that were omitted from the first edition.
*Hardcover 608 pp.
Beautiful edition of these singularly beautiful writings of this holy Saint! I had ordered this as a gift, and the book was unfortunately damaged in the mail upon delivery, but the Sisters were astoundingly prompt and extremely conscientious in helping me resolve the issue effectively, beyond anything I could have hoped for. Thank you so very much, and blessed glorious Nativity of our Lord!
