The issues of the creation of the world seem to always occupy people. The fundamental questions concern the "who" and the "how". Genesis clearly answers that God is the Creator of everything, but it does not make a clear reference to the "how" of this creation. The sciences have the field, and the responsibility at the same time, to "search" for the "how".

Megas Vasilios follows the "royal road". He is a man who, on the one hand, received a great education and cultivated the sciences, and on the other hand, is a spiritually cultivated clergyman, a brilliant high priest, who can understand that the Holy Scripture does not aim to produce science, it is not such a "manual", but it concerns the salvation of the souls of people, which is experienced in the present life.

In the book, you admire the "memorials", that is, the signs of God's presence, and you understand how the whole world is a jewel, which the arrogance of man constantly wants to destroy. You admire in the "Hexaemeron" how perfectly nature functions. The great Cappadocian Hierarch, the great Saint of our Church, proves to be "ahead of his time", because he is a chosen vessel of God and a person open to the new. Megas Vasilios urges us to study, contemplate, philosophize, and theologize!
