Readings for Lent. Proverbs of Holy Week.

On the most intense days of the church year preceding Great Easter—the days of Holy Week—believers are called by the Church to specially concentrate on the events of the last days of the Savior’s earthly life. Not only the corresponding... fragments of the Gospel, but also the texts of the Old Testament, read during services, help to delve deeper into the meaning of these events. This book contains readings of the proverbs of Holy Week with historical, theological and ethical comments by contemporary clergy. These readings and reflections on them can serve as an excellent tool for spiritual preparation for the meeting of the great feast of the Resurrection of Christ.
