St. Paul explains the purpose of the Judaic law, and the necessity of moving beyond its practice to the new, very different life based on faith in Christ.

It is a book on law and legal thought as it emerged in its formative ages of the Christian past; it asks what the ancient writers and theorists did with law and legal thought.

These councils not only defined Trinitarian and Christological dogma in terms which ever since have been regarded as normative by the major Christian confessions of East and West. They also laid down canons and disciplinary decrees which constitute a milestone in the history of church order, signalling as they do a shift from the multifarious customary law of earlier centuries to a written law universally applicable throughout the Church.

After providing an historical overview of each of the four councils, he meticulously examines their canons one by one. He translates them into clear and readable English on the basis of the best modern critical editions; he explains the sometimes ambiguous terminology of the original texts; he explorers the historical circumstances which gave rise to these canons in the first place; and he also indicates some of the ways in which they have been reinterpreted (and sometimes misinterpreted) in later centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe author does not claim to give answers to all the questions which we today might wish that the ancient canons addressed. Rather, as a scholar, he seeks to engage others in the challenges which honest scholarship poses, to lead them into the world of the ancient councils in order to discover the \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003emens legislatoris\u003c\/em\u003e. And at the same time, as a bishop, he seeks to discern the continuing significance of the ancient canons for the life of the Church today.

The reason may be simply that Paul’s words are the Word of God. His epistles stand forever as the divinely chosen model of how the Christian arrives at truth through experience. Unlike so many theologians of later times, Paul did not inherit a Christian worldview. His vocation, rather, was to create such a thing from his own experience. For this reason, Paul’s thought ever remains the Church’s cutting blade, the biting edge of her apologetics and evangelism.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003eTo affirm, as everyone does, that Romans is unique in the Pauline corpus should serve to indicate the necessity of caution in using it as a guide to the other epistles. But in recent centuries the Christological and ecclesiological core of Paul’s thought has been displaced by a preoccupation with religious and moral psychology; all the epistles were interpreted through a Romans lens. This is a false turn, which runs the risk of reducing salvation itself to a sub-division of religious anthropology. To misinterpret Paul is to misunderstand the Gospel itself. Fr Patrick Henry Reardon guards against this error and offers a fuller and more balanced picture of the Letter to the Romans, reading it in the context of the entire Pauline corpus and relying upon the best ancient sources, the Apostle’s earliest disciples and defenders, those Christians in the churches that Paul had a hand in founding. These churches, closely associated with the composition and copying of the epistles rightly enjoyed a recognized authority in the determination of early Christian doctrine.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"productReview\"\u003e\n\u003carticle itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Review\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"review\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info-block\"\u003eSKU:PB-ROMARE\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info-block isbn\"\u003eISBN:978-0-88141-640-4\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info-block author\"\u003eAuthor:Patrick Henry Reardon\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info-block size\"\u003eSize:5x7\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info-block pages\"\u003ePages:172\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/article\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"St Vladimir's Seminary Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44541368140064,"sku":"PB-ROMARE","price":33.16,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/6260\/0736\/products\/Romans__07354.jpg?v=1676486285"},{"product_id":"copy-of-how-to-be-a-sinner","title":"Song of Songs: Textual Commentary and Theological Reflections","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"tab-description\" class=\"tab-content is-active\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003eFr Lawrence Farley brings his Biblical interpretation skills to bear on the Song of Songs, one of the shortest but richest—and most difficult—books of the Bible.

The work is also invaluable for all those who wish to understand more about the theory and practice of worship in the Orthodox Church. In this edition the text of the Commentary, translated by J. M. Hussey and P. A. McNulty, has been supplemented by a brief foreword which places Cabasilas' work in its historical context. A helpful introduction by R.M.

In the context of a complete theology, which includes extended consideration of the major theological topics--the Trinity, Christology, eschatology, ministry, and sacrament, but above all, the Eucharist--the author propounds a fresh understanding, based on the early Fathers and the Orthodox tradition, of the concept of person and of the Church itself. His consideration of the local church as \"catholic\" in the literal sense, and the need to understand the universal Church not as a superstructure but as the communion of all Churches, provides the program for the ecclesiology of the future. The French Dominican priest Yves Congar has written that he considers the author to be \"one of the most original and profound theologians of our epoch\" and that he \"presents a penetrating and coherent reading of the tradition of the Greek Fathers.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e: John Zizioulas is Metropolitan of Pergamon in the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eBeing as Communion\u003c\/em\u003e is part of the C\u003csmall\u003eONTEMPORARY\u003c\/small\u003e G\u003csmall\u003eREEK\u003c\/small\u003e T\u003csmall\u003eHEOLOGIANS\u003c\/small\u003e S\u003csmall\u003eERIES\u003c\/small\u003e. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003eOther books included in the series are \u003cem\u003eHymn of Entry \u003c\/em\u003eby Archimandrite Vasileios, \u003cem\u003eThe Deification of Man \u003c\/em\u003eby Georgios I.

His book provides real hope that longstanding binaries such as visible and invisible, hierarchy (institutionality) and charism, sacramentality and asceticism, etc., can be reconciled, especially through appeal to the “apophatic ecclesiology of consubstantiality” that Loudovikos discerns in Maximus the Confessor. This is the Church not reducible to “essence” or “existence” but contemplated as dynamically in motion, “in the making,” participant in the living but incomprehensible God, and anticipating through its Eucharist the genuinely eschatological reality of the ekklesia, namely, the natural and not just “personal” communion which is the Church.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info-block\"\u003eSKU:PB-CHMALO\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info-block isbn\"\u003eISBN:978-0-88141-509-4\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info-block author\"\u003eAuthor:Nikolaos Loudovikos\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info-block transl\"\u003eTransl:Norman Russell\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info-block published\"\u003ePublished:2016\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info-block size\"\u003eSize:6 x 9\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info-block pages\"\u003ePages:296\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"St Vladimir's Seminary Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44569273499936,"sku":"PB-CHMALO","price":51.39,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/6260\/0736\/products\/Church_in_the_Making_Front_Cover__33198.jpg?v=1676921572"},{"product_id":"copy-of-church-in-the-making-an-apophatic-ecclesiology-of-consubstantiality","title":"The Holy Gospel According to Saint John: A Pastoral Commentary","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"tab-description\" class=\"tab-content is-active\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content is-active\" id=\"tab-description\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;

His masterwork, \u003cem\u003eThe Pillar and Foundation of Truth\u003c\/em\u003e, proved so influential that it has left an indelible mark on Russian religious thought right up until our own day. \u003cem\u003eA Metaphysics of Love\u003c\/em\u003e examines Florensky’s experimental methodology, his antinomic theory of truth, and, above all, his sophiological conception, which subsequently evoked much debate in Orthodox circles.

It traces the origin of the image of Spirit of Truth through the Old Testament and the two centuries period between the composition of the last book of the Old Testament and the first book of the New Testament. Its dualistic aspect (\"spirit of truth\/spirit of deception,\" as in I John 4:6) is shown to be rooted in the Dead Sea Scrolls and, ultimately, in the ethical-eschatological dualism of the Iranian prophet Zarathustra.

Raising from a new perspective the divisive question of the filioque, it demonstrates the continuing importance of the Nicene Creed for expressing the most basic and significant teachings of Orthodoxy: God as Trinity and God incarnate. These doctrines reflect as clearly as any others the way Scripture takes shape in Tradition, while it serves as the ground and measure of Tradition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAbout the Author:  \u003c\/strong\u003eThe Very Rev John Breck was Professor of New Testament and Ethics at St Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary from 1984 to 1996.

The author concludes that none of the scriptural books were intended to offer a history in the sense that we use that word today, so any efforts to construct such a history necessarily leads one astray from the original intention of the scriptural text. What the Scripture's original authors and editors did intend was to present a long ma'al a Hebrew word that is variously translated 'parable,' 'allegory,' 'proverb,' or 'edifying story.' Therefore, the best way to understand the biblical books is to focus on the story itself. Without imposition, Fr Tarazi presents the evidence for his exegesis and invites the reader to judge whether or not it clarifies the text. Besides effectively making sense of otherwise hard-to-understand texts, Fr Tarazi dismisses speculative discussions about matters such as if and when the exodus 'actually happened' and thus leaves more room for in-depth discussions of other issues. This new edition has two completely new sections: one titled The Rise and Formation of Scripture and another titled Toward the Gospel. Together they clarify the relationship between the Old and New Testaments and will help every reader understand why the New Testament cannot be understood except in the light of the Old.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Rev.

The reader will find convincing explanations for the parable in Luke 16 where Jesus praises an \"unjust steward,\" Jesus' call for division rather than peace in Luke 12:51 and the apparently abrupt ending of Acts which has led many to suggest that the real ending was lost.

Paul's death then left a void in the leadership of Gentile Christianity, which was still under attack by Jewish Christianity. In order to defend the faith as it was preached by Paul, some of his followers created what is now the Gospel of Mark. Their purpose was not to make a historical chronicle of Jesus' life or a systematic presentation of Christian doctrine, but rather to defend Paul's conception of Christianity from the remaining (Jewish) apostles. In writing the story of Jesus, they interpreted Jesus himself and the events of his life according to what they knew of the teaching s and life story of their own leader Paul.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003eThe remaining volumes in this series will cover Luke and Acts in \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eVolume II\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e, John and Revelation in \u003cstrong\u003eVolume III\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe Rev.

the hardships of revolutionary Moscow; life in the Russian emigration in Western Europe and as a foreign student in America; the challenge of combining marriage and a family with service in the Church;
