Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. Centuries before the English Church lost one of its greatest translators, this book, originally written in Syriac, saw the light of day. Translated from the original text, it provides an illuminating analysis of the works of Saint Ephrem the Syrian, an early Christian writer whose works, translated into Greek, Latin, Arabic, Coptic, Armenian, and Sclavonic, attest to the esteem in which they were held. Saint Ephrem was a prolific writer whose works show a man of great originality of thought, devotional character, and a deep understanding of Scripture. His writings offer a holistic blend of active and contemplative life, rich with gentle asceticism and a vivid anticipation of the devotional style of later writers such as Saint Bernard. This volume brings together thirteen of his Rhythms on the Nativity along with three Rhythms concerning the Faith and eighty against the Disputers, offering a valuable exploration of some of his most important works. Deeply rooted in both Old and New Testament scripture, this book provides a fascinating insight into the life, thought, and spirituality of one of the most significant figures of early Christianity.
