Neilos of Rhodes, exhortation (paraenesis) to a priest who has committed crimes worthy of deposition (Παραίνεσις πρὸς ἱερέα περιπεσόντα ἐγκλήμασι καθαιρετικοῖς)

The present study is a presentation and edition of a hitherto unedited work by Niketas Myrsiniotes, later metropolitan Neilos of Rhodes. The work is preserved in only one manuscript, codex 3104 of the National Library of Greece, folios 299r-323v. The text refers to a priest who has committed grave sins and the metropolitan attempts to admonish him.
