Reviews
'... Day's excellent book should provide a new beginning for further detailed studies in the sources of Jerusalem liturgy. For this and for a great introduction to the relevant sources I recommend it highly.' Worship '... a brilliant little book... Ashgate has again put us in its debt by introducing historical liturgical debate to a wider audience - and in such a well-presented format.' Praxis News of Worship 'Day has tackled a difficult subject with great courage and skill... she gives us a useful summary of past research, many new and a way forward for potentially most fruitful further work.' Anaphora 'Day's hypothesis is clear and well-researched, and her book essential reading for all those interested in the early history of the rites of Christian initiation.' Ecclesiastical History 'All in all, Day's monograph contains a great wealth of valuable information and convincingly questions a large number of commonly held assumptions.' Bijdragen
