"Intentionally anonymous and lacking concrete details of historical and cultural setting - and for many years suspected of messalianism - this collection of thirty memre [discourses] has been long recognized as an important, yet understudied work of the fourth-century Syriac Church." "The Liber Graduum records the ups and downs of a real christian community and is not a theoretical projection. The author meanders through many themes, but always calls readers back to the steps of Uprightness and Perfection."--BOOK JACKET.
