This book is a collection of eight Lenten sermons from this important Church Father on the Book of Genesis, delivered in fourth-century Antioch. They offer insights into an understanding of the Fall and redemption which are quite distinct from those developed in the West after St. Augustine. The sermons touch upon a range of moral issues such as compassion towards the poor, the role of prayer in family life and the place of the Christian in wider society which are as relevant now as then. - Publisher.

The church fathers displayed considerable interest in the early chapters of Genesis, and often wrote detailed commentaries or preached series of homilies on the Hexameron--the Six Days of Creation. This volume of Ancient Christian Texts offers a first-time English translation of Severian of Gabala's In cosmogoniam and a fresh translation of a portion of Bede the Venerable's Libri quatuor in principium Genesis.

"Eight Sermons on the Priesthood, Altar, and Sacrifice" were created when, according to the author, the principles of Christianity were freely questioned as the most doubtful and disputed points. The author aimed to defend the Catholic doctrine of the priesthood, the altar, and the sacrifice to close the confusion between what is Catholic and what is Roman in the tradition of the reformed Church of England.
