A Scriptural Index to the Homilies in the Prolog of Ochrid
The reader will find below a comprehensive listing of the Scriptural texts on which St Nikolaj Velimirović based each of the daily homilies in his monumental hagiographical and devotional work, The Prolog of Ochrid. St Nikolaj (1881-1956) was a man of great holiness and learning, and a preacher of considerable gifts and appeal. These short homilies are written in a popular style, and are a sterling model of a genuinely Orthodox devotional (as opposed to strictly exegetical) approach to reading the Scriptures.
The index below was complied on the basis of the 2002 edition published by the Serbian Orthodox Diocese of Western America, which appears to follow the traditional chapter and verse divisions of the English Bible not only for the New Testament but also for the Old, even when these are at variance from those of the Septuagint (e.g., in the Psalms and Jeremiah). Cross-references to a standard system of chapter and verse divisions for the Septuagint will be added at a later time.
While printed copies are available for purchase from Amazon (Vol. 1 & Vol. 2), it should be noted that the entire text of the Prolog of Ochrid is available online at the following address:
