Synopsis
Protopresbyter Michael Pomazansky's Orthodox Dogmatic Theology has long been regarded as a standard source of Orthodox theology. Since its publication in Russian in 1963, it has been used as the main theology textbook at Holy Trinity Orthodox Seminary in Jordanville, New York; and since the publication of the first English edition in 1983, it has come to be regarded throughout the English-speaking world as one of the best introductory books on Orthodox theology. Written clearly, simply and concisely, this modern-day classic is accessible not only to theology students but to the contemporary layman in general. As one deeply rooted in the tradition of the Orthodox Church, Fr. Michael quotes abundantly from the Holy Scriptures and the writings of the Holy Fathers, being concerned to present, not human opinions, but Divine Revelation, which has been handed down to us as the Church s certain, unchanging teaching.
EXPANDED THIRD EDITION: In the first English edition, Fr. Seraphim added many substantive footnotes in order to provide clarification on certain points or to introduce helpful information not included in the main text. In this third English edition, yet more notes have been added, primarily consisting of quotations from the Holy Fathers, in order to further elucidate Orthodox doctrines. This edition also includes a new preface, a new bibliography, and an expanded index.

As briefly as possible I have set forth for you our love of wisdom, which is dogmatical and not dialectical, in the manner of the fisherman and not of Aristotle, spiritually and not clearly woven, according to the rules of the Church and not the marketplace. --St. Gregory the Theologian, 4th Century

Paper Back. Condition: New. 'The preaching of the Apostles and the dogmas of the Fathers have sealed the one faith of the Church. And wearing the garment of truth, woven of the theology from above, she rightly dispenses and glorifies the great mystery of piety' (commemoration hymn for the First Ecumenical Council.) Throughout the history of Eastern Christianity, it has been very unusual to present the Faith in the form of a 'systematic theology' (with a few exceptions-St. John Damascene the most well known). The Fathers preferred to present dogma through worship, and wove theology into hymns, homilies, and liturgy. But seeing the need for a modern exposition of Orthodoxy -moreover, one compatible with Western methods of presentation- Fr. Michael undertook a scholarly presentation of the Faith both for seminary students and interested laypeople. Fr. Seraphim Rose saw in Fr. Michael a 'link between us and the Holy Fathers,' and recognized that the value of this book lay in its transparency to traditional Orthodox theology. Organized along the lines of a traditional systematics textbook (sources of revelation, the nature of God, the Trinity, creation, providence, sin, the economy of salvation, the Incarnation, the Virgin Mary, redemption, the Church, sacraments, prayer, eschatology), it is yet saturated with Scripture and references to the Fathers. First published in 1963, and in English in 1984, it includes helpful several appendices and is now available in an updated third edition. 434 pp. Seller Inventory # 229081
