On the Holy Images (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781445291628)

In this volume, Saint Nektarios explores the sacred visual art of the Church, focusing on how they are used, and drawing from testimony from the Holy Scriptures, the Early Christians, Church Fathers, and Archaeological findings. He defends their existence and use in the Church against those who oppose them, carefully rebutting their arguments, and also explaining the difference between sacred images and idols. Finally, Saint Nektarios takes a deeper look into the pattern in which the Lord Jesus Christ is depicted, especially in the images which were miraculously made without hands.
