Böcker av St Bulus Al-Bushi

St Bulus al-Bushi has and will be known as one of the greatest theologians in the history of the Coptic Middle Ages. His extensive contributions to writing in Arabic had extensive effects to Egyptian Christians and other groups. He was one of the first authors to write in the Arabic language rather than translate from the Greek or Coptic as was common at the time. The eight homilies translated in this book were given on the major church feasts and are arguably his most famous work. These homilies are characterised by their extensive use of scripture, as well as his ability to integrate theological and spiritual themes, which puts him in line with the great church fathers of the fourth and fifth centuries.
