This is the fourth episode from my interview with Orthodox Archpriest Alexander Rentel, Chancellor of the OCA, scholar and professor of #Orthodox canon law at St. Vladimir’s #Seminary.
In this episode, Father Alexander discusses St. Nicodemus of the Holy Mountain’s famous compilation of Orthodox canons known as The Rudder.

I didn't know a lot of what he just said. Very interesting. Thank you for sharing these videos!
Thank you. I'm most grateful for the work you do.
I've never really understood the canonical law and tradition. All I really know is that canon law is what separates orthodox truth from gnostic heresy.. right? Am I somewhere on the right track?
He got his education in rome , if that tells you anything.
I can’t think of a better way to spend an evening than curling up with the Rudder. 😉
If only we all had this priest's spirit and knowledge!
This was helpful — I have previously heard only general references to this document's poor English translation, never the specific issues here, regarding reception of converts and the dichotomy around economia and strictness. Very interesting…. Thanks to all for this work!
I am a catechumen and I was just talking to my priest about canon law in Orthodoxy and he mentioned The Rudder. Very timely, thank you!
