In two earlier posts (part one, and part two) I provided a list of the volumes of the Popular Patristics Series published by Saint Vladimir’s Seminary Press, indicating the contents and the source of the texts translated for each volume. Several more volumes have since appeared, and are described here.

42. St Basil the Great: On the Holy Spirit
Introduction and Translation: Stephen Hildebrand

You have On the Holy Spirit listed as both number 5 and number 42. But thanks for the list.
Number 42 is a new translation of the same title. There are a couple of others like that in the list. Get the newer one if you must choose between the two.
I noticed this hasn’t been updated since 2012…crossing my fingers to be heard. After quite some time I have finally purchased almost all the SVS books, I am still missing one. They have some new ones since you last updated the list…(end of this message on the bottom)…however, I have an issue with the numbering, not sure what happened…..
#1 – On the Priesthood
#2 – Lectures on the Christan Sacraments
#3 – On the Incarnation
#4 – missing, no idea what the title is….
#5 – On the Holy Spirit
#6 – On the Holy Icons
