Saint Michael the Archangel: Three Encomiums, Vol. 1: The English Translation
Overview
This 1894 translation into English gives a rare glimpse into the hagiography and theological insights of early non-Chalcedonian church fathers on the Archangel Michael. Both Theodosius and Severus had personal interactions with the Roman Emperor Justinian I over the Miaphysite/Monophysite controversy, and both were eventually exiled and excommunicated for their beliefs on Christology. These encomiums discuss everything from the seventh-century icon of the Archangel Michael (and its interpretation) to the role of Saint Michael in Heaven and his involvement in various miraculous events as recorded throughout the Scriptures. The original Coptic texts and excerpts of the Arabic translation of the encomiums are included as well. Additionally, the Ethiopic text is also available for the work of Severus.
