This edition comes alongside the timeless appeal of the work of Fr. Georges Florovsky, considering that the contemporary broad interest in his theological writing is not coincidental. With the translation of this particular work into Greek, the reevaluation of the theological contribution of the great Russian theologian is prioritized.
Being a neo-patristic composition in his work that does not exhaust its interpretative perspective in projecting the patristic letters but expresses the patristic spirit as the timeless model of ecclesiastical life and theology, the study of his writings indeed holds special interest.
As a result, through the work of Fr. Georges Florovsky, the reader is enriched with a deep theological spirit and a writing style that truly knows how to engage in dialogue.
The problem, whether in the era of Fr. George or today, still holds, as does his response, prompting us to revisit it through the perspective of his prophetic words: "Thus today we face the same problem again: What can we offer instead of the Holy Scripture? I would prefer the language of tradition, not out of laziness and gullible 'conservatism' or blind 'obedience' to some external 'authorities', but simply because I cannot find a better phrasing."
I am prepared to subject myself to inevitable accusations of being 'dated' and 'fundamentalist'. I would protest by saying that such an accusation is unjustified and erroneous. Of course, I accept and support the 'dogmas of faith' consciously and wholeheartedly, for I perceive through faith their eternal correctness and relevance in all ages and in all situations, including the 'present'.
I believe precisely that the 'dogmas of faith' can help a desperate generation like ours to regain Christian courage and vision."
