Psalmic Odes for Apostolic Times, translated by Francis Acharya, edited by Bernard Kilroy

These exquisite Psalmic Odes from the second century AD—lost until 1909—were familiar only to Syriac scholars until Cistercian Abbot Francis Acharya made these English translations and commentaries for the general reader’s meditation. Immersed in the same daily poetic theology of southern India’s Malankara liturgical office, Fr Francis’ passion before he died was to disseminate the Odes as the personal or communal prayer they had been. His version was mentored by international scholar Sebastian Brock, who also checked this edition for publication by researcher Bernard Kilroy. The attractive hardback presentation offers the Odes as spiritual resource rather than academic text, enhanced by nine new pictorial illuminations by the distinguished artist-theologian Jyoti Sahi.

‘This is the first translation … by a monk who was using it in his mountain hermitage for his lectio divina—his daily meditative reading.’ Baselios Cardinal Cleemis
