The Greek Church: A Sketch is a book written by Ernest Silvanus Appleyard in 1851. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the Greek Orthodox Church, its history, beliefs, practices, and traditions. The author delves into the origins of the church, tracing its roots back to the early days of Christianity and the establishment of the Eastern Roman Empire. He then explores the development of the church over the centuries, its relationship with the state, and the role it has played in shaping Greek culture and identity. The book also covers the liturgy and sacraments of the Greek Orthodox Church, including the celebration of the Divine Liturgy, the use of icons, and the importance of fasting and prayer. The author also discusses the role of the clergy and the hierarchy of the church, as well as the various monastic orders and their contributions to the spiritual and cultural life of Greece. Overall, The Greek Church: A Sketch provides a fascinating insight into the history and traditions of one of the oldest and most influential Christian churches in the world. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christianity, Greek culture, and the Eastern Orthodox Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
