Homilies on the Maccabees
St John Chrysostom
The homilies on the Maccabees celebrate the extraordinary faith and bravery of the seven Maccabean martyrs and their mother, who endured immense suffering and torture for their beliefs. The first homily highlights the radiance of the martyrs, comparing their spiritual glory to the sun and emphasizing the power of faith over physical strength. It recounts the trials faced by the martyrs, particularly focusing on the mother's profound love and courage as she witnessed her sons' tortures. The second and third homilies further explore the themes of sacrifice, resilience, and the call for all believers to emulate the martyrs' steadfastness in faith.
