Joseph J. Allen, ed.
Contributors:  Joseph J. Allen, Peter L'Huillier, Patrick Viscuso, MichelNajim and Nicholas Nagorny

The questions regarding marriage and priesthood remain "open to conjecture," and continue to lack a "consistent teaching" in the Orthodox Church and are the creative cause for this collection. Addressing the questions from historical, canonical, and pastoral perspectives experts in these fields examine the evidence surrounding the marital status of clergy, especially in terms of remarriage.
