About this book
This text offers a fresh translation of each admonition, parallel texts previously noted by other scholars or newly uncovered by Karris, as well as comments on each admonition verse by verse. The reader is led into Francis's "theological workshop" where it becomes clear how Francis imprinted his own logo on the spiritual traditions he inherited.
