FK, I thought this article from the Greek Archdiocese sums up clearly and concisely the Orthodox understanding and source of dogma and doctrine ...

Yes, it does, thank you for posting it. I didn't read every word, but enough to get the gist I think. I would agree that Orthodoxy has a higher regard for scripture than other non-Protestant Christian faiths.

I am not so sure, FK. As for relying on scriputre alone, or exclusively, I recommend Jaroslav Pelikan's Whose Bible is it? (small inexpensive book loaded with isnghts that will blow your mind).
