Commentary on Genesis
by our Father among the Saints, Ephraim the Syrian
The creation of the sun, moon, and stars (“lights in the firmament of the heavens”) on the fourth day of creation (Gen. 1:14). (The plants are shown to have been already created on the third day.) Detail of a fresco at Suchevitsa Monastery, Moldavia, Romania, sixteenth century.
The Troparion and Kontakion to Saint Ephraim the Syrian Troparion in Tone 8 By a flood of tears you made the desert fertile, and your longing for God brought forth fruits in abundance.
By theFather radiance of miracles illumined whole universe! Our Ephraim, pray you to Christ Godthe to save our souls!
Kontakion in Tone 2 Ever anticipating the hour of Judgment, you lamented bitterly, venerable Ephraim. Through your deeds you were a teacher by example; therefore, universal Father, you rouse the slothful to repentance.
