Paul Pasquesi on the Book of the Holy Hierotheos

DEC 25, 202457 MIN

Description

We discuss one of the lesser-known, but most esoterically-important, classics of Syriac spiritual literature, the <em>Book of the Holy Hierotheos</em>. Hierotheos was said to have been the teacher of Dionysius the Areopagite, but he wrote in Syriac, and taught a suspiciously-Evagrian practice of ascent to god.
