This study is set as a theological look at Ephrem the Syrian. After a general introduction, the author systematically examines a number of theological topics based on Ephrem’s poetry: the doctrine of God, the creation of the world, the Trinity, Christology, the Holy Spirit, angels, demons, the nature of man, sin, the freedom of man and grace of God, soteriology, the state of man after death, and the final judgement. The (vocalized) Syriac passages, some quite lengthy, are cited from the Roman edition of Ephrem’s works (reprint available from Gorgias Press) and translated into Latin. This small volume will be of interest to historical theologians and to students and scholars of Syriac literature.
