This book by Archimandrite Athanasios Mitilinaios is the special 2nd edition of Homilies on the Book of the Revelation including a revised text, an updated easy-read layout, and full color icons and photographs. Grounded in Scripture and the teachings of the Church Fathers, volume 1 contains 23 of the 104 one-hour lessons given by a holy elder in Greece during the early 1980's. Archimandrite Athanasios Mitilinaios (1927-2006) drew thousands of the faithful to hear these spirit filled lessons each week over the course of several years. This volume covers chapters 1-3 of the Revelation. Fr. Athanasios presents an in-depth yet easy to understand patristic interpretation of the Revelation touching upon the problems of modern day life. Translated and adapted by Constantine Zalalas.

The series of commentaries on Revelation book, based on the homilies of Archimandrite Athanasios Mitilinaios are the best I could find until now. In my opinion Father Athanasios had received a special charisma from God, which allowed him to comment and interpret the very difficult book of Revelation in a quite equilibrate manner, free from exaltations, exaggerations and false teachings, which easily can be encountered in such endeavor. Very important, he makes that in the most authentic orthodox spirit, supporting its interpretations with teachings from Holy Fathers and concordances across the whole Scripture, as well as with fitting examples from history and our days. As a non-native English speaker, I can confess the translation text is easy to read, the ideas quite clearly expressed, preserving probably the original spirit of the homilies.
I strongly recommend these commentary books to every Christian Orthodox and not only. They will strengthen faith and enlighten the Orthodox understanding in some of the most obscure texts in the Bible.

They will make great baptismal cross necklaces. I'm wondering about the Greek inscription on the back. Does it say "Made on Mount Athos"?
This jam was so delicious I ordered 8 more jams
Different flavours
The jam has just the right hint of lavender and the sugar content isn't too high
Delicious
