In a world shaped by faith and legend, the figure of Saint Michael the Archangel stands as a beacon of courage and protection. This rare collection, Saint Michael The Archangel: Three Encomiums, brings together the voices of Theodosius, Archbishop of Alexandria; Severus, Patriarch of Antioch; and Eustathius, Bishop of Trake - three pillars of early Christianity whose writings echo across centuries. Their encomiums, presented in the original Coptic alongside extracts from Arabic and Ethiopian versions, invite readers into the heart of ancient Egyptian Christianity and the devotional traditions that shaped a civilisation. For scholars of religious history and students of theology, these historical religious writings offer an unparalleled window into the spiritual imagination of late antiquity. Each text illuminates the veneration of the archangel, weaving together themes of divine intervention, cosmic struggle, and hope. The careful translations and commentary by E. A. Wallis Budge, a renowned authority on Coptic and Ethiopian texts, ensure that both the depth and nuance of these religious encomiums are preserved for modern readers. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Whether you are drawn to the study of archangel Michael, the writings of Severus of Antioch, or the broader landscape of early Christian texts, this work stands as more than a reprint: it is a cultural treasure, resonating with both timeless devotion and scholarly significance.
