This classic in comparative liturgy offers a number of liturgies from the Syrian, Egyptian, Persian and Byzantine rites. Brightman goes beyond offering only the Ordinary of the liturgy and gives the liturgy as it might appear on a particular liturgical day, thus including the Proper elements for that day as well. Rubrics and private prayers of the priest are included, as is a useful glossary of liturgical and ecclesiastical terms.

Virtuous Reading

Aphrahat’s Approach to Scripture

By Jeff W. Childers

Series: Analecta Gorgiana 121

ISBN: 978-1-60724-035-8

The epistemology of the mid-fourth-century Christian scholar in Persia, Aphrahat, presumes that the human mind and the task of biblical interpretation are caught up in a dynamic experience of Christian spiritual transformation. In short, for the Persian Sage, good Bible interpretation requires nothing less than the total person—inner and outer, in community and before God. In Aphrahat’s Demonstrations, we encounter a scholar who not only presents this remarkably integrated set of ideals but is also an impressive practitioner of them.

Jacob of Sarug's Homilies on Jacob

On Jacob’s Revelation at Bethel and On our Lord and Jacob, on the Church and Rachel and on Leah and the Synagogue

Translated by Dana Miller; Edited with Notes and Introduction by Mary T. Hansbury

Series: Texts from Christian Late Antiquity 58

ISBN: 978-1-4632-4189-6

Recognized as a saint by both Chalcedonian and non-Chalcedonian Christians alike, Jacob of Sarug (d. 521) produced many narrative poems that have rarely been translated into English. Of his reported 760 metrical homilies, only about half survive. Part of a series of fascicles containing the bilingual Syriac-English editions of Saint Jacob of Sarug’s homilies, this volume contains two of his homilies on Jacob. The Syriac text is fully vocalized, and the translation is annotated with a commentary and biblical references. The volume is one of the fascicles of Gorgias Press’s Complete Homilies of Saint Jacob of Sarug, which, when complete, will contain all of Jacob’s surviving sermons.
