Description: The Ladder of Divine Ascent is an ascetical treatise on avoiding vice and practicing virtue so that at the end, salvation can be obtained.

Written by John Climacus in AD 600 at the request of John, Abbot of Raithu, a monastery located on the shores of the Red Sea.

Divided into thirty parts, or "steps", in memory of the thirty years of the life of Christ, the Divine model for the faithful Christian presents a picture of all the virtues.

It contains many parables and historical touches, drawn principally from the monastic life exhibiting the practical application of the precepts.
