Title: Weighty Spiritual Treatise
Product review: This work by one of the most famous and influential Eastern Christian saints, Gregory Palamas, is really rather fantastic. The Introduction by Mr. Rogich is very good, as are the notes/footnotes throughout the book. Thankfully the publisher and/or Mr. Rogich did not feel it necessary to shorten the notes, but allowed for lengthy ones, and thankfully right at the bottom of the page. The Treatise itself touches most of the spiritual concepts that one might be concerned about: meekness, sexuality, gluttony, mourning, vainglory, asceticism, etc. As usual, St. Gregory is very insightful and profound. This book, however, is not really a good beginners introduction to Orthodox thought on these matters, but is more for those who already have built a solid spiritual foundation by living an Orthodox life.
