The Epistles and the Apocalypse

Archbishop Averky (Taushev),Nicholas Kotar,Averky Taushev

This third and final volume of Archbishop Averky’s New Testament commentary elucidates the moral and pastoral aspects of the Pauline and Universal Epistles and the Book of Revelation. Discussion of each New Testament book is preceded by an analysis of the authorship, time and place of composition, and major themes within. The final commentary on the Apocalypse, in which Archbishop Averky relies heavily on the ancient commentary of St Andrew of Ceasaria, is provided in the popular translation by Hieromonk Seraphim (Rose), together with the Scriptural text itself. The author’s approach is thoroughly patristic, constantly turning to the Church Fathers for the elucidation of one or another particular verse, especially to the commentaries and expositions of St John Chrysostom, Blessed Theophylact of Ochrid, Blessed Theodoret of Cyrus, and most particularly to the voluminous Scriptural commentaries of St Theophan the Recluse. AUTHOR: Archbishop Averky (Taushev) (1906 1976) was born in Imperial Russia. After the Russian Revolution he taught and served in Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, and Germany before being assigned in 1951 to teach at the Holy Trinity Seminary in New York. Nicholas Kotar is a freelance translator from Russian into English, and a conductor of Russian sacred choral music. Dr. Vitaly Permiakov holds a Ph.D. in Theology from the University of Notre Dame.
