I was recently sent notice of this by one of our readers and a blogging colleague. It looks rather interesting for those interested in the study of the Byzantine Divine Liturgy.

The Divine Liturgy
A Commentary in the Light of the Fathers

Translated by Elizabeth Theokritoff

The Divine Liturgy was first published in Greece in 1982 (by the theological journal ‘Synaxi’) since when it has been continuously in print and there have been four new editions. From 1993 it has been published by the Cell of St John the Theologian, Koutloumousiou Monastery, Mount Athos. This translation into English has been made from the most recent 2006 edition. The commentary is addressed to anyone who wishes to learn about the Orthodox Divine Liturgy in an esoteric rather than scholastic manner and draws widely on the words and meditations of holy people through the ages who themselves have celebrated, participated in, and experienced it.
