Considered by many to be the final and crowning work of the
patristic age, St John of Damascus' On the Orthodox Faith addresses
all the major areas of Christian belief: Trinitarian theology,
Christology, soteriology, the sacraments, the veneration of icons,
saints, and relics, and much more. This new translation by Norman
Russell includes a helpful introduction discussing the origin and
reception of the text. This diglot edition, reproducing the
critical Greek text on the facing page, is sure to become the
standard and classic edition of this central and important
patristic work. Saint John of Damascus was a Syrian monk and
priest. Born in the seventh century and raised in Damascus, he died
at his monastery, Mar Saba, near Jerusalem. He wrote works
expounding the Christian faith and composed hymns which are still
used. He is one of the most widely read Fathers and is best known
for his strong defense of icons.
