Father Père Binet, S.J., was a Jesuit priest and author of the twentieth century. His concise work The Divine Favors Granted to St. Joseph presents St. Joseph as highly exalted in the Communion of Saints, explaining the saint's patronage and the value of praying to him. Father Binet's book, translated by M.C.E., was originally published in 1973 through Marian Publications, Indiana. It was later copyrighted by TAN Books in 1983.
