Summary

This classic Eastern Orthodox commentary on the Gospel of Matthew was written in about the year 1100 A.D. by Theophylact of Bulgaria, a brilliant and saintly Byzantine churchman. Blessed Theophylact distills the teaching of the early Church Fathers, especially St. John Chrysostom, in language that is profound, powerful, and direct. His commentary has remained a primary text on New Testament interpretation throughout the Christian East. Translated from the original Greek text.

Sober, succinct, deeply spiritual, highly Orthodox

Absolute gold. Any Orthodox will need no encouragement to read this. A holy church father will not be critiqued by me! But this is well delivered and is read with care, gravity, clarity...and it works for audible! It will lead you into prayer, please God.
