Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book contains a metrical homily written in seven cantos by the 4th-century Syriac author, Ephraem the Syrian, whose poetic output was central to the liturgical life of the early Syrian church. The Repentance of Nineveh is grounded in the Old Testament Book of Jonah. It is enriched by the tradition of the early Syrian Church, and provides a captivating insight into the faith and practices of the community. Ephraemâs Repentance of Nineveh is notable for its elegant verse, rhythmic language, and memorable imagery, which make it a significant work of early Christian literature. It has been translated from the Syriac by Henry Burgess, and this new, updated translation aims to bring this work to a wider English-speaking audience.
