Dosoftei, a scholar-monk, fled Poland for Moldavia in 1671, becoming Metropolitan. He championed Romanian literacy, translating the Psalter into Romanian verse, making scripture accessible. Faced with Polish demands for his return, Prince Antonie refused, honoring Dosoftei's vital work for the Romanian language. He became a symbol of national identity and faith.
Lord, may Dosoftei's devotion inspire us to embrace our heritage and share the Gospel. #Faith #OrthodoxChristian #Tradition #Bible #Education
