In this volume, four homilies have been chosen from the original Syriac texts. The poetry is typological and rooted in Scripture. The first homily considers the Mother of God in language full of wonder. The second homily concerns the Annunciation, including a long reflection on Joseph, the just one. In the third, the meaning of Mary with Elizabeth is recounted and the rejoicing of John the Baptist in the womb of his mother at the greeting of Mary. The concluding homily focuses on the death and burial of the Mother of God demonstrating Jacob's typological interpretation of Scripture.

reviewed On the Mother of God on January 30, 2012 On the Mother of God
This is a small and beautiful book, a Syriac poem written by Jacob of Serug, a Christian bishop of late antiquity. The poem is a retelling of the story of Mary, mother of Jesus, and drips with temple imagery and references to the Book of Isaiah, giving it a wonderful, dense, merkava-like feel. Beautiful; instructive.
