We begin the incredibly influential book of mystical theology by St. Gregory of Nyssa: The Life of Moses. On our reading, this book proposes that the life of Moses as a temporal icon of salvation history, so that all of salvation history is recapitulated and imaged in Moses; moreover, we argue that this is what the Christian life is: a telling of the entirety of salvation history from a particular moment in history.
We discuss pages 29-51 of the following translation. In the next episode we will be discussing pages 55-78.
