About the Press

Holy Scripture, the Fathers, the Saints, and the Liturgy. In English.

Holy Nativity Press publishes Holy Scripture, the writings of the Fathers, the lives and counsels of the Saints, and the books of the Liturgy — in clear English, in editions made to be carried and used.

The Holy Nativity Patristic Library — the Press’s first series — draws from the thirty-eight volumes of the great nineteenth-century translations of the Fathers: corrected, indexed, newly set, and bound for the pocket.

Newly Typeset

Every volume in the Library is re-set from the great nineteenth-century translations in the classic Fell types — never a facsimile scan — with running heads, chapter numbers, and the translator’s complete footnotes.

Fully Indexed

A subject index and a scripture index close every volume, so a passage heard once in a sermon can be found again in a minute.

Sized for the Pocket

4 × 6.25 inches, set for a daily rule of reading — the Fathers carried to the bus, the parish, and the prayer corner.
