Written 900 years ago by Blessed Theophylact of Ochrid, these commentaries distill the essence of St. John Chrysostom's preaching-and that of other great fathers of the patristic era-many centuries before his own time. Blessed Theophylact has given us a ' Bible study' of ancient and divine origin, untouched by contemporary opinions and discussions. It is in fact, timeless and has proven its value to every generation of Orthodox Christians during the past nine centuries.
