trans. Fr. Christopher Birchall

The life of St. Maximos. based on the text prepared by his disciple Anastasios the Apocrisiarios of Rome in the 7th century, is augmented by the essay "The Seat of Moses, its Powers and Perils" and a chronology of the Monothelite controversy. Despite the dubious use to which St. Maximos' shining example of fidelity has been put by the volume's editors, this witness to the absolute demands of the Truth is a sorely needed corrective to the false liberalism of our age, which allies itself more closely with Pontius "What is truth?" Pilate than with He Who IS the Way, the Truth and the Life. Quality Paperbound
