Les œuvres complètes de Jean Chrysostome dans un format facile à naviguer sous forme d'application.

John Chrysostom was born around the year 349 AD in Antioch. His father reposed soon after his birth and he ended up being raised by his very pious mother. Under her influence St. John also became devout, and he took to studying scripture under the bishop of Antioch who would later baptize him.

St. John was drawn to become a monk, and after his mother died he withdrew to the wilderness. There he wrote a number of works on the ascetic life. After a number of years he then went to a cave to live in complete silence. He remained there for two years until his health declined and he was forced to come back into the world. He was then ordained a priest in 386, and eventually earned the name, 'Chrysostom' (Golden-Mouthed) for his brilliant sermons. He was well known for his love of scripture, and many of his sermons were compiled into commentaries.

In 397 he was chosen to be the bishop of Constantinople. This was perhaps the most important Christian office of its day. Although an extremely busy position, he nevertheless continued his literary output in the form of sermons, which he delivered in the great church, Hagia Sofia. Unfortunately his fiery sermons did not sit well with the royal court. He was banished from the city once by the empress. Then again, a second time the empress had him removed and forcibly walked to a remote location. St. John did not survive the journey and died on Sept. 17, 407.

St. John Chrysostom left a tremendous mark on the Christian church. His liturgy is celebrated by Eastern Orthodox Christians almost every Sunday, and his homilies (sermons) are considered by many to be the best ever produced.
