The Explanation of the Holy Gospel According to St. Matthew: Vol. 1

Author: Blessed Theophylact, Translator: Fr. Christopher Stade

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