The Mystery of the Mother of God. The Origins and History of the Veneration of the Virgin Mary in the First Millennium
49.99 €
Metropolitan Hilarion devoted his new book to the "mystery of the Mother of God" - Her image in Holy Scripture, the origins of Her veneration in the first centuries of Christianity, and the development of this veneration throughout the first millennium of the Church's existence. When did Christians begin to pray to the Virgin Mary? When did the first feasts of the Virgin Mary appear? When did churches begin to be built in Her honor? How and when did the doctrine of the primogeniture of the Virgin Mary arise? How did the iconography of the Virgin Mary develop? What do we learn about the Virgin Mary from the early Christian Apocrypha, from the writings of the Church Fathers, and from liturgical texts? These and many other questions are answered in this book. Based on a vast number of sources - Greek, Latin, and Syriac - the author of the book shows how the "Mystery of Our Lady" was revealed in the life of the Church.
