Basil of Caesarea

The Hexaemeron consists of nine homilies by St. Basil of Caesarea, focusing on the cosmogony presented in the opening chapters of Genesis. Delivered during Lent, these sermons were intended for both morning and evening services, likely aimed at working men. The work is notable for its extemporaneous style, reflecting Basil's oratorical skill and has been highly regarded since antiquity, often compared to the eloquence of Plato and Demosthenes. Its influence and significance in early Christian thought make it a key text in the study of theology and homiletics.
