| Compilation and Translation by Holy Apostles Convent
“We[...]have attempted in one compact volume to give intimate portraits of the Prophets and their sayings, that may be both useful and beneficial as a companion book when reading the Old Testament. The scope of this collection is not to replace the actual reading of the prophetic writings, but to aid the reader in coming to the Church’s understanding of their preaching. Our commentary will examine and study the lives and struggles of sixteen holy Prophets and their books within the framework of sacred Scriptures[...], holy Tradition, Patristics, together with the sacred Hymnography[...]and Iconographic Traditions of the Holy Orthodox Church.” —“Preface”
