The First-Created Man

By St. Symeon the New Theologian
Translated by Father Seraphim Rose
This is a collection of seven of St. Symeon’s homilies which deal with Adam’s fall and our redemption by Jesus Christ. They are deeply theological, yet easily grasped. For St. Symeon, theology is life—the true “words of God” which speak to the Christian heart and inspire it to struggle for the eternal Kingdom.

His profound homilies on Adam and the future age are of special value because they give the theological foundation of the Christian life of struggle: the original state of man from which Adam fell tells of our deepest nature, of which our present fallen nature is a corruption that is to be overcome; and the future state of blessedness is a goal to which our Christian struggle is aimed, and to which we can attain, by God’s grace, despite our fallen state. Previously published as The Sin of Adam.
