Saint John Chrysostom - Byzantine Icon
[BYZ_st92-2358]
Iconographer: Father Micheal
Commemorates on : November 13
Saint John was surnamed Chrysostom (Golden-mouth) because of his eloquence.He was born in Antioch the Great in the year 344 or 347 and gave up his soul to the Lord near Comana in Pontus, at the chapel of the Martyr Basiliscus, who had appeared to him shortly before, foretelling the day of his death, which came to pass on September 14, 407. His last words were Glory be to God for all things.He made exhaustive commentaries on the divine Scriptures and was the author of more works than any other Church Father, leaving us complete commentaries on the Book of Genesis, the Gospels of Saints Matthew and John, the Acts, and all the Epistles of Saint Paul. His extant works are 1,447 sermons and 240 epistles. Twenty-two teachers of the Church have written homilies of praise in his honour. Besides his feasts today and on January 27, he is celebrated as one of the Three Hierarchs on January 30, together with Saint Basil the Great and Saint Gregory the Theologian.

by Katherine PageDate Added: Tuesday 06 June, 2017 The icon of St. Romanos arrived in a very timely manner. I was impressed with the care and proper protection of the icon for mailing. The icon is even more beautiful than I expected. This will be the perfect gift for our church's choir director. I will definitely order again from OramaWorld. Thank you! Rating: |
