Study Materials

The translations of the Old Testament and New Testament are accompanied by commentary from the Orthodox viewpoint.

The OSB addresses such questions as: Why is the Mother of God essential to the Faith? Who were the 70 Apostles?

    HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)

    Our job is now clear. All Americans must be prepared to make, on a 24 hour schedule, every war weapon possible and the war factory line will use men and materials which will bring, the war effort to every man, woman, and child in America. All one hundred thirty million of us will be needed to answer the sunrise stealth of the Sabbath Day Assassins.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
