Chavara’s theological vision was rooted in the Syriac tradition of sacramental understanding of God, humans, and the world. The concept of mystery (Raza), the importance of the Scripture and liturgy in theology, divinization as the purpose of revelation can be found occurring in the writings of both the Syriac Fathers and Chavara. Chavara’s profound love for the Church, and his special devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary are key aspects of his spiritual legacy, which are also part of the patrimony of Syriac Christianity. Chavara’s theological insights and spiritual practices offer valuable perspectives for contemporary Christian doctrine and praxis, particularly in understanding and interpreting the universal call to holiness and salvation.</note></biblStruct><bibl type="formatted" subtype="bibliography" resp="https://www.zotero.org/styles/chicago-note-bibliography-17th-edition">
