The Lives of the Monks of Palestine

St. Cyril of Scythopolis

Written in the 6th century, St. Cyril's Lives of SS Euthymius, Sabas, John the Hesychast, Cyriacus, Theodosius, Theognius and Abraamius are, in the words of Bishop Kallistos, " a primary source of genuine value, highly influential in later Orthodox history, that brings to life a key period in the evolution of the monastic life."
