Cyril, Bishop of Jerusalem, preached important and eloquent sermons at a time when Jerusalem was the focus of vital developments in the Church. This illuminating study begins with a comprehensive introduction to his life and works. A full account of the rites he conducted is given, along with an assessment of Cyril's thought in the context of fourth-century theological developments. The text of a biblical sermon is included along with a fascinating letter written by Cyril to the Emperor Constantine.
