Now available in an English translation, this book presents The Vision of Abbot Joasaph of the Monastery of Saint Savvas, a remarkable nineteenth-century account of a monk who was granted a vision of the spiritual world. In this vision, Abbot Joasaph is led by Saint George the Victory-Bearer and shown the narrow path of salvation, the danger of spiritual sloth, the glory of the righteous, and the throne of Christ. He is taught through vivid images about repentance, watchfulness, prayer, and the mercy of God. This vision was originally collected, translated from Greek into Romanian, and preserved by Saint John Jacob of Hozeva, whose careful transmission ensured its place within Orthodox Christian spiritual literature. This edition also includes a brief "Life of Saint John Jacob of Hozeva" for readers unfamiliar with the Saint's life and work.
