The monasteries of the desert--in Jerusalem, Egypt, and Syria--played an influential role in Byzantine society, and the \"desert fathers\" are well known even today as key figures in the history of Christian spirituality. Binns uses contemporary sources to discuss both how the monks actually lived, and their contributions to doctrinal and spiritual debates.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.66 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 26, 1996\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42562721284192,"sku":"9780198269342","price":165.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/1922\/9280\/files\/L24ySVN2bzlBWVlEM05aa1lpUVk0dz09.webp?v=1770364530","url":"https:\/\/bijoucc.myshopify.com\/products\/ascetics-and-ambassadors-of-christ-the-monasteries-of-palestine-314-631-paperback-1","provider":"CARIBBEAN CONNECT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
