Syriac Orthodoxy is for many reasons greatly indebted to 6th century Mor Jacob of Serugh. Dinno introduces Mor Jacob foremost for his contributions toward Syriac spirituality. The interpretation of Scripture and symbolism highlighted in Mor Jacob's mimre is characterized as the epitome of the Syriac spiritual heritage. Dinno defines this as the dual vision to understand the physical world with God's hidden realities. Mor Jacob's creative process is one of devotion, candid and expressive. Many of his mimre focus of the economy of salvation. Dinno provides examples of Mor Jacob writing about his feelings of inadequacy, appreciation of silence, and transparency with his audience.
