At the heart of the Orthodox Church life is the Liturgy, and, from earliest times, Christian devotees gathered together to pray, to proclaim the Scriptures, and to celebrate the Lord’s Supper. Although we can say that the Orthodox liturgy was practically completed by the time of the Barberini Codex, which appeared by the end of the eighth or beginning of the ninth century, according to Wybrew, the full term of its development and the process of consolidation did not take place until the fourteenth century (145). But an explanation of this development entails a great difficulty as Adrian Fortescue points out in “Liturgy” “At the outset of this discussion we are confronted by three of the most difficult questions of Christian archaeology, namely From what date was there a fixed and regulated service such as we can describe as a formal Liturgy? How far was this service uniform in various Churches? How far are we able to reconstruct its forms and arrangement?” This book is an attempt to provide a historical framework for the development of the liturgy and to answer these and other questions. In it is final shape, as acted out in an Orthodox Cathedral, the almost heavenly spectacle, the Divine Liturgy, calls to mind what Philip said to Nathanael “Come and see” (John 146). (Angel F. Sánchez Escobar, MA, PhD, ThD)

I've studied liturgy for years, and it's refreshing for a book to bring up points out of the Church councils, etc. which have been glossed over in the past. Very satisfying.Product details

This was a helpful addition to a library like mine. Only in the last few years have I finally found orthodox literature that is accessible to a Western scholar. It's well researched and beautifully translated. Glad he's doing several books.
