NPNF2-08. Basil: Letters and Select Works (Author)
Description: With over twenty volumes, the Nicene and
Post-Nicene Fathers is a momentous achievement. Originally gathered
by
Philip Schaff, the Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers is a collection
of
writings by classical and medieval Christian theologians. The purpose of
such a collection is to make their writings readily available. The
entire work is divided into two series, each with fourteen volumes. The
second series focuses on a variety of important Church Fathers, ranging
from the fourth century to the eighth century. This volume contains
selected works of St. Basil the Great. St. Basil is well-known for his
care for the poor and his important impact upon the communal practices
of the monastic life. The Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers are
comprehensive in scope, and provide keen translations of instructive and
illuminating texts from some of the great theologians of the Christian
church. These spiritually enlightening texts have aided Christians for
over a thousand years, and remain instructive and fruitful even today!
