And the talent passed to him through the prayers of his father. <...> This edition of sermons and some scientific articles, as well as biographical information and other information, are published for the first time in the year of the 80th anniversary of the revival of the St. Petersburg Theological Academy, of which the rector, graduate, professor and truly worthy son was the ever-memorable Father Nikolai, as well as on the 5th anniversary of his repose this year."
The reviewers of the anniversary edition were Archpriest Maxim Kozlov, Chairman of the Educational Committee of the Russian Orthodox Church, and Priest Dimitri Lushnikov, Head of the Department of Theology at St. Petersburg State Theological Academy.
