Metropolitan Hilarion devoted his new book to “The Secret of the Mother of God” - its image in the Holy Scriptures, the origins of its veneration in the first centuries of Christianity and the development of this veneration throughout the first millennium of the existence of the Church. When did Christians pray to the Virgin Mary? When did the first Mother of God holidays appear? When did the temples begin to build in her honor? How and when did the doctrine of the appropriation of the Virgin? How did the Mother of God iconography develop? What do we learn about the Virgin Mary from the early Christian apocrypha, from the works of the Church fathers, from liturgical texts? This book answers these and many other questions. On the basis of a huge number of sources - Greek, Latin and Syrian - the author of the book shows how the secret of the Mother of God was revealed in the life of the church. According to the coverage of the material, this book about the Virgin has no analogues in Russian theological literature
