Nestorian Questions on the Administration of the Eucharist by Isho'yabh IV
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
This volume contains the Syriac text (in facsimile) of a short treatise in the form of questions and answers concerning the rules and regulations governing the service of the altar as it relates to the Eucharistic service or Qurbana. The text is attributed to Patriarch Isho’yabh IV (11th century) of the Assyrian Church of the East. The text is furnished with a translation into English as well as an extensive introduction, commentary, and notes. Although the text is highly technical in nature, the introduction and commentary are excellent tools in helping to understand the reasons behind the traditions reflected in the rules and help us to better understand and appreciate the origins and purposes of traditions in general.
