St John Chrysostom
Translated by Catherine P. Roth & David Anderson
Introduction by Catherine P. Roth

Number 7 of Popular Patristics Series

“The present volume offers the most notable of St John Chrysostom’s writings on marriage. In the course of his ministry he preached and published a series of sermons on each of the epistles of St Paul. Naturally the subject of marriage and family relationships had to arise when he dealt with the epistles to the Corinthians and Ephesians.”
