A eulogy in honour of Saint Andrew the Apostle
The Saint Proclu This homily, translated from the Greek by Petru Molodeț and revised by Luiza Oancea and Octavian Gordon, is a eulogy dedicated to Saint Andrew the Apostle, which celebrates the power of apostolic preaching through imagery of fishing and light. The text elaborates on Andrew’s call to Peter — ‘I have found the Messiah’ — and highlights the superiority of apostolic grace over all the miracles of the Old Testament.
