The Psalter of the Quatrains, Canto I
Ancient Faith MinistriesAbout this sermon
Dcn. Seraphim introduces us to the Saltair na Rann, the great tenth-century Old Irish poem that retells the whole of salvation history — from the first day of creation to the last judgment — in 150 cantos mirroring the 150 Psalms. Deacon Seraphim reads his own translation of Canto I, the magnificent canticle of creation, in which an anonymous Irish poet synthesizes the Genesis account with the cosmological learning of the early medieval world to sing the making of heaven and earth, the separation of the elements, and the glory of the God who fashioned all things from nothing.
