Hello Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

As per the report of book 1, I have completed an in depth review of St Ambrose's work "On the Duties of the Clergy" (Book 2 out of 3). (Please see attached PDF).

I hope that my review of this work will entice you all to pick up a copy of the work, and expand your knowledge of what was considered the duties of clergy at the time.
