St. John Chrysostom: Commentary on the Sages: Commentary on Proverbs and Commentary on Ecclesiastes

Volume two of St Chrysostom's commentaries on the Sages, includes the commentary on Proverbs and the commentary on Ecclesiastes. Recent scholarship has unearthed commentaries on the text of Job, Proverbs and Ecclesiastes by the celebrated preacher of Antioch, St John Chrysostom. These texts reveal the response of a Greek Father to this distinctive sapiential material, which the ancients found challenging, sometimes pragmatic, sometimes quaint.
