Translation, commentary, and introduction by Robert W.Thompson, revised edition

The Teachings of St. Gregory is part of the Armenian History of Agat'angelos, which describes the conversion of King Trdat at the beginning of the 4th century and the work of St. Gregory the Illuminator in establishing the Armenian Church on a formal basis.

Although the teaching is presented as a sermon to the Armenian court giving the essential content of the Christian gospel, in its present form it is a literary composition of the 5th century. The story's great importance is that it was recognized in later generations as the core of Armenian Christian teaching, and served as an authoritative text against which correct believe could be measured.

It was first translated into English in 1970. Since that date, much has been learned about he History of Agat'angelos and has thus been revised and updated with a new commentary.

This easily readable book is the perfect gift for anyone wanted to better understand their Armenian faith and its spiritual roots.
