The Life of the Virgin Mary by John Geometres (published by Harvard University Press' Dumbarton Oaks Medieval Library) is another good book on the life of Our Lady. It comes with both the Byzantine Greek original text and a facing English translation along with some excellent notes.
Do a review on the classic literature novel Ben Hur - it’s heavy on the gospels and Jesus Christ although the main character is a Roman pagan gentile named Ben Hur- (and it’s better than the film version) Thanks 🙏 You’ll enjoy reading the novel too imo
It looks interesting! Great theological explanation! Are there any official books by the Catholic Church on the Life of the Virgin Mary? Are you doing any livestreams soon? Great video!!!
@@terrysbookandbiblereviews there are for sure. I am just not sure what the titles are. I don’t have any plans for a live stream at the moment but definitely possible
You miss my point. The translation is not meant to promote a Catholic ethos but is meant to be an historic translation meant to provide a lens of what early Christians believed about the BVM
St. Maximus The Confessor and St. John Cassian are two of my very favorite saints to read. Thank you for this book review! Its much appreciated.

@@ConvincedCatholicism it’s sort of like the conversion story of Saul the Pharisee to Saint Paul in Acts Of The Apostles
