medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I seem to recall reading in a Greek Orthodox source that the Orthodox observe the Nativity of Mary on 7 Sept out of deferrence to Christ who alone would
have a perfect 9 month gestation. . .
or it could be the cough syrup.
Anyone have any information on that?
