Description:
The long memra translated here in this volume presents the seven parts of the homily on Creation in a single volume.
Recognised 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 his entire seven-part homily on the Fashioning of Creation.
