(More customer reviews)Coptic Church review:
According to the publishers description it is concerned with biblical studies with emphasis on patristic exegesis, liturgical life of the Church, lives and writings of the Church Fathers, ascetic and mystic spirituality. I would add,"and much more."
First Patristic Review:
When Dr. Rodolph Yanney, decided to launch his risky project in 1980, patristic studies was not a popular subject and especially with those he targeted; second generation Orthodox immigrants from the oldest two Patriarchates of Christianity, Alexandria and Antioch. Dr. Yanney, tells me that those who supported the quarterly were neither young nor Oriental Orthodox immigrants.
One day he recieved a visitor who came to support him and praise his efforts and the CCR, who was Dr. Robert Wintermute,Duke U. professor of Semitic and Coptic languages and old testament, NC, and one of the pioneers of the Nag Hammadi Gnostic library.
