Originally a thesis, this is a detailed study of the role of crying and mourning in the teaching and practice of Egyptian hermits in the Nitrian desert during the 4th century. Crying and mourning were believed to be the most direct means of discovering God and themselves. Muller also examines the background to this form of worship in Egypt and in New Testament and Septuagint texts.
