In the history of Christianity, the third spiritual writer to whose name the title of Theologian is attached is the Venerable Simeon the New Theologian. The Holy Father, through oral and later written teachings, preached his personal experience of intimate communion with the Lord. Russian Orthodox people became acquainted with the works of Simeon the New Theologian thanks to the translation works of Bishop Theophan the Recluse, who appreciated the holy father for the fact that... “the monk inspires zeal for the inner grace-filled life... And everything he sets out so clearly that it unquestioningly captivates the mind.” The third book of St. Simeon the New Theologian included “Words” from eighty-two to ninety-two, translated by Bishop Theophan the Recluse, and sixty “Divine Hymns”, the translation of which was completed by other translators in the mid-twentieth century. Recommended for publication by the Publishing Council of the Russian Orthodox Church
