This volume incorporates an expansion of Blessed Theophylactﾒs work by St. Nicodemus of the Holy Mountain, an 18th century saint who speaks with the same voice as his predecessors.

The Apostle Paul proclaims the greatness of Godﾒs love for us, and our salvation in Jesus Christ, through the Holy Spirit. His epistle moves from the promise of the glory that awaits us when we turn away from our old sinful habits to embrace the richness of Godﾒs grace. He returns again and again to the glory of His eternal will and purpose for us. Calling us to the fullness of the love of Christ, he gives instruction on how to love God and our neighbor. The commentary reveals the depth of every phrase, emphasizing the reality of the Church as the Body of Christ, and the building up of the temple of God.
