We are currently reading Romans. I will post the latest commentary excerpts here each week. Let me know if you would like me to post a particular section. I will also add some commentary from “Homilies” by Bishop Nikolai Velimirovic and from “The Year of Grace of our Lord” by a monk of the Eastern Church. The Gospel commentary is from Blessed Theophylact. Romans commentary is from “Romans, An Orthodox Commentary” by Fr. Patrick Henry Reardon. 1 + 2 Corithians comments from Fr. Lawrence Farley, “First and Second Corinthians, Straight from the Heart”. Galatians from OSB. Thank you for reading!
We meet at 4:00 pm on Saturdays before Vespers in the education building (or at the picnic tables).
