K. C. Pillai

Dr. K.C. Pillai (1900-1970) was a Bishop-at-large of the Indian Orthodox Church, Antiochean Succession, Chennai (Madras), India.

He was sent to the United States of America in an attempt to acquaint Christians with orientalisms of the Bible. During his 20 years there he wrote some books, and worked with western Christians to help clarify what he believed were difficult Scriptural passages though an understanding of the Eastern manners and customs.

His books include:
* "Light Through an Eastern Window", Robert Speller & Sons; Publishers (1963) ISBN 0-8315-0057-3
* "Orientalisms of the Bible" - Volumes 1 & 2, Munkus Publishing Company, INC. (1969, 1974)
