This book includes terminology and concepts of theological subjects, such as dogmatics, Biblical studies, liturgics, iconography, hymnography, church law, Orthodox anthropology and Christian ethics, church architecture, Byzantine chant, sectology, and a so-called “Vocabulary of Mt. Athos,” which depicts language fundamentals of the monastic life on Mt. Athos.
