1969509769John XXIII Center for Eastern Christian Studies 1969. Paperback. VERY GOOD.

A bit worn some red pen underlining and scant black pen notations stain to fore edge owner's label to title page. Quite scarce with only 6 library holdings recored in OCLC. 'Some of the greatest Christian prose poetry and music can be found in the worship services of Holy Week for the betrayal suffering death and resurrection of Our Lord has always inspired men to create the best. This Service Book contains many beautiful thoughts which tell tell the deep insight that the Syrian people have about their Savior His love for them and the terrible humiliation which He allowed to befall Himself so that mankind could be reconciled to the Father. It is a beautiful expression of a Christian culture which is neither Latin nor Greek but belongs to the ancient Semitic world. Today it is used in the Jacobite and Syrian Catholic Churches which are found mainly in the Near East and India. The style of these prayers is simple and direct very biblical in their orientation and devoid of any later western philosophical thought. It is meant to give voice to the cry that is in the hearts of the people a simple cry of love repeated time and again as the worshipper is struck by the vision or concept of the glorious transcendence of God now being abused. For the Syrian it is Christ the God-man who is suffering willingly to save man and this thought stirs the very core of his being.'. John XXIII Center for Eastern Christian Studies paperback
