"THE HOMILIES OF SAINT JOHN CHRYSOSTOM TO THE PEOPLE OF ANTIOCH"

This book represents a significant work in the collection of homilies or sermons by Saint John Chrysostom, one of the Early Church Fathers known for his eloquence in preaching and public speaking. Published in 1688, this fourth volume specifically compiles a series of Chrysostom's homilies addressed to the people of Antioch, where he served as a presbyter before becoming Archbishop of Constantinople. These homilies are renowned for their depth of theological insight, moral teaching, and rhetorical brilliance, reflecting Chrysostom's concerns with social justice, ethical living, and the spiritual health of his community. Through these sermons, readers gain insight into the pastoral care and theological challenges of the late 4th century, as well as Chrysostom's ability to inspire and admonish his congregation with wisdom that remains relevant to Christian thought and practice today. This volume is not only a testament to Chrysostom's enduring legacy as a preacher and theologian but also a valuable historical document, illuminating the Christian life in Antioch during a pivotal period in early Church history.
