The proposed collection presents articles by Archimandrite Raphael on most of the Twelfth Feasts, published at different times in periodicals. The deep knowledge of Holy Scripture and Holy Tradition, the broad erudition of the author give these articles special interest. September is the first month of the Church New Year, the beginning of the liturgical circle , called indict. The eighth day of the first month has a symbolic meaning; the number 8 among the Pythagoreans and Platonists meant the harmony of the world, and among Christian exegetes - eternity. The eight-thousand-year cycle in eschatology is usually viewed as the beginning and end of time. Time and matter, hiding the kingdom of eternity like a curtain, at the end of world history will burn in spiritual fire, revealing the wondrous beauty of the Universe transformed in the Divine light..
