For when Solomon had perpetrated 1104 I, 16 | shine with much lustre, and oftentimes more than those who have 1105 I, 1 | Oh! that my head were water, 1106 I, 15 | my feet. Mine head with oil thou didst not anoint; but 1107 I, 15 | hath anointed my feet with ointment. Wherefore I say unto thee: 1108 I, 9 | increases the facility of operation, and makes our good hopes 1109 I, 19 | insensibility, and treat the opinion of their fellowmen with 1110 I, 5 | and granted him several opportunities of conversion, first of 1111 I, 9 | and return thence in the opposite directio, why do you hesitate, 1112 I, 1 | of the calamities which oppress it, nor to withdraw, after 1113 I, 2 | perceives that we are ourselves oppressed by the consciousness of 1114 I, 16 | cloud of despondency which oppresses us on thy account. For now, 1115 II, 2 | from fatigue a grievous and oppressive thing? For it is to this 1116 II, 4 | again?" speaks the divine oracle. But thou art striving against 1117 I, 12 | give her light; and I will ordain evils against the whole 1118 I, 7 | and he plunged into no ordinary vice, but went to the very 1119 I, 17 | everything, accused those who originally conducted him to this way 1120 I, 12 | the stars of Heaven, and Orion, and the whole system of 1121 I, 17 | who was untimely left an orphan, but possessed of much money, 1122 I, 17 | flatterers, besides the snares of orphanhood, youth, and great wealth. 1123 I, 13 | had wished to punish them out-fight He would not again have 1124 I, 9 | gnashing of teeth, to the outer darkness, to affliction 1125 I, 11 | envious, or burning with any outrageous lust, or anxious concerning 1126 II, 1 | soon impeded, even at the outset. For the eye, the keen eye 1127 I, 7 | least who were last have far outstripped those who were first. For 1128 II, 3 | reward not according to the outward part which he has played 1129 I, 12 | cometh, burning like an oven, and it shall consume them, 1130 I, 2 | I know not how, slipped overboard, and fallen into the very 1131 II, 1 | great vehemence would easily overcome him, if he persevered. Therefore 1132 I, 9 | small it may be, will be overlooked by the righteous judge. 1133 I, 19 | the greatest; but he who overlooks the former will also abstain 1134 I, 17 | the law of kindred had the oversight of him dragged him back 1135 II, 3 | unable to have authority overtheir body. He who is now despised, 1136 II, 1 | rest of the discipline he overthrew you, even then there was 1137 I, 1(2) | privileges and duties. See note, p.73. ~ 1138 I, 6 | away from him, and he was pained, and walked sorrowfully, 1139 I, 10 | they have nothing in them painful or disgraceful, what shall 1140 I, 13 | give ourselves up to shadow painting, and because we cannot in 1141 I, 13 | devise imitations by means of paints, and dyes, and dressing 1142 I, 7 | said, partly by means of parables, partly by plainer deeds 1143 I, 1 | and His Father, and the Paraclete seated within. But now all 1144 I, 6 | effect his entrance into Paradise, but in such a brief moment 1145 I, 9 | and kept a table for their parasites, and were in constant attendance 1146 I, 15 | another may readily obtain pardon; but he who has it of himself 1147 I, 18 | perhaps he was therefore pared from thee for a season that 1148 I, 12 | his speech and mind, and partake of all the rest of his glory; 1149 I, 9 | being, that He might make us partakers of eternal blessings, that 1150 I, 11 | now indeed, seeing that it partakes of corruption, it is subject 1151 I, 2 | weight, and having been parted from that cord, descend 1152 I, 18 | then thou holdest me as a partner, receive him as myself."73 1153 I, 16 | on thy account. For now, passing by the consideration of 1154 I, 17 | monastic life, he fell into a passionate desire for intercourse with 1155 I, 4 | since the Divine nature is passionless, even if He punishes, even 1156 I, 7 | rest, and was for merly pastured by the same shepherd, and 1157 I, 11 | and become unworthy of his paternal inheritance, as soon as 1158 I, 5 | furnace, no one having the patience to look any longer at the 1159 II, 1 | anxious concerning your patrimony, but because you have blotted 1160 I, 11 | will be in a condition of peace, and gladness and joy, all 1161 I, 5 | He then exhibited his own peculiar power, not by putting down 1162 I, 9 | bitterly. And would that the penalty were limited to the ashes! 1163 I, 13 | arrangement of garments, and pencilling of eyebrows, and many other 1164 I, 2 | One knowing this, when he perceives that we are ourselves oppressed 1165 I, 12 | countless blessings, we have no perception of any of them, and deem 1166 I, 1 | then despair of the most perfect change. For if the devil 1167 I, 19 | great, should neglect the performance of little things. For he 1168 I, 9 | in silk and redolent with perfumes, and kept a table for their 1169 II, 5 | loss of property, exile, peril of life, he does not even 1170 I, 15 | of His wrath, and that we perish not? And God say their works 1171 I, 5 | the flame having received perishable bodies, held aloof from 1172 II, 3 | glory a precious thing which perishes like the power of grass? 1173 I, 2 | heaven, the salvation of perishing souls. "For by hope" it 1174 I, 10 | severity of punishment and permanence and cannot bear the concurrence 1175 I, 5 | did not inflict even this permanently, but after having chastised 1176 I, 5 | stranger than this. For, permitting the furnace to be kindled 1177 I, 19 | announces them as when the perpetrator himself reports them. And 1178 I, 11 | all these things in the perpetual enjoyment of intercourse 1179 I, 1 | without success, but to persevere, until He have mercy upon 1180 II, 1 | easily overcome him, if he persevered. Therefore he was diligent, 1181 I, 15 | suffering by medicines, we still persist in exhorting them to devise 1182 II, 4 | us, both those which are personal to ourselves, and which 1183 I, 13 | actually in hand, but in the persuasion that these things will never 1184 I, 4 | advantage, and to prevent our perverseness becoming worse by our making 1185 I, 3 | forefathers, having been perverted from the right position, 1186 I, 1 | until He has received our petition. For this is the mark of 1187 I, 18(74)| Philem. 10-18. ~ 1188 I, 17 | high degree of Christian philosophy not merely in proportion 1189 II, 3 | forbidden. It was reckoned to Phinees for righteousness that he 1190 I, 17 | know probably that young Phoenician, the son of Urbanus, who 1191 I, 12 | exhibits them all as in some picture both to those who have committed 1192 II, 1 | with him. For that fell pirate attacked thee just as thou 1193 I, 11 | manifestation of the reality is plain from the very words of the 1194 I, 7 | means of parables, partly by plainer deeds and words. Now that 1195 I, 15 | vehemently declaring, and plainly threatening; "yet three 1196 I, 3 | kinds of devices in order to plant in us this thought (of despair); 1197 II, 3 | outward part which he has played but according to his works. 1198 I, 7 | not to get up again; and, playing the coward and the sluggard, 1199 II, 2 | shall we say then? Shall we plead the anxieties of business? 1200 I, 1 | that, in proportion as the pledges deposited in thy soul were 1201 I, 14 | are in a more miserable plight than they (for there are 1202 I, 7 | pleasing to the father, and he plunged into no ordinary vice, but 1203 I, 16 | longer perceive that it is plunging downwards, choosing to do 1204 II, 3 | the saying of a heathen poet. I know that thou hast become 1205 I, 11 | the midst of the multitude pointed out one other to thee who 1206 I, 17 | suddenly trodden all the pomps of this life under foot, 1207 I, 2 | things, yea, having hung the ponderous millstone7 from thy neck. 1208 II, 3 | subjected to the wrath of the populace and to the irrational impulses 1209 II, 4 | every respect his brother, Porphyrius who is wise with the wisdom 1210 I, 17 | pretence, and said that he must positively himself go down to the city, 1211 I, 13 | things uplift those who possess them to such a pitch of 1212 I, 17 | untimely left an orphan, but possessed of much money, and many 1213 I, 9 | conflagration of desires which now possesses thee, release thyself from 1214 II, 3 | of grass? or wealth, the possessors of which are pronounced 1215 I, 15 | despaired, and questioned the possibility of your own salvation; but 1216 I, 1 | tables of stone, the golden pot? For this calamity is bitterer, 1217 II, 3 | the power of this world's potentate of darkness.~"Marriage is 1218 I, 10 | torrents of punishment are poured in upon the soul from every 1219 I, 11 | not possible there to fear poverty and disease: it is not possible 1220 I, 19 | and women, who habitually practise the greatest shamelessness, 1221 I, 12 | time when all they who have practised what is good, and wrought 1222 I, 12 | merely summoned some to be praised and admired, others to be 1223 I, 17 | him to pray; and having prayed he put an end to the drought. 1224 I, 1 | Truly divine are these precepts, and decrees of the highest 1225 I, 16 | or deep water, or down a precipice; so they who have been seized 1226 I, 14 | be dragged down again and precipitate ourselves, and add blows 1227 I, 19 | he has spoken with such precision, seeing that He declares 1228 I, 17 | his own affairs, having prematurely abandoned the labours of 1229 I, 7 | every direction, and much preparation of mind: and if we so order 1230 I, 18 | righteousness to sin the Lord will prepare him for the sword,"79 and, " 1231 I, 3 | the feverish longing of a preposterous passion, has ruined his 1232 I, 1 | For this accursed thought pressing down like some yoke upon 1233 II, 1 | denied Christ owing to the pressure of torture, have fought 1234 I, 17 | shame, and unmasked his pretence, and said that he must positively 1235 II, 5 | although many would have prevented me. "Cease labouring in 1236 I, 8 | obnoxious barrier, which prevents any near approach being 1237 I, 11 | more value than gold and previous stones, and the beams of 1238 I, 6 | Seest thou how Ahab is pricked in the heart before my face? 1239 I, 5 | carried away to his former pride, and cast bound into the 1240 I, 8 | actually a member of the priesthood. What then? Did Paul cut 1241 I, 15 | it by means of saving the primary one. Which also Christ signified 1242 II, 4 | after having consumed the prime of their manhood in labours 1243 II, 2 | not to upset the ruling principle in nature, and for a man 1244 I, 8 | Christ."22 Now this was prior to repentance: but after 1245 I, 12 | congregation thereof into a prison, and shall shut them up 1246 II, 5 | being driven in another like prisoners, by the force of the gale, 1247 I, 1(2) | continually of his Christian privileges and duties. See note, p. 1248 I, 13 | would hardly be accepted by prize-fighters, and runaway slaves, and 1249 I, 19 | fellowmen with contempt proclaim their own evil deeds with 1250 I, 7 | implied in the parable of the prodigal son as well as in this. 1251 I, 18 | unprofitable to thee, but now is profitable to thee and to me, whom 1252 I, 7 | greater, nor the error more prolonged. And the same truth is implied 1253 I, 11 | everything to obtain this promise? Open then even now in imagination 1254 I, 15 | offended against us, on their promising to become better, and place 1255 II, 1 | expected that one who had promptly attacked him with such great 1256 II, 3 | possessors of which are pronounced unhappy? "For woe" we read, " 1257 I, 12 | who needs no witnesses, or proofs, but independently of all 1258 II, 5 | things, such as loss of property, exile, peril of life, he 1259 I, 14 | henceforth it was impossible to propitiate God, and if he had said 1260 II, 2 | and so by these means he propitiated God, insomuch that he was 1261 I, 9 | themselves living in luxury and prosperity, are in no wise grateful 1262 I, 13 | also that in the houses of prostitutes the women who are ugly and 1263 I, 17 | having all of them entered, prostrating themselves at his feet, 1264 I, 1 | destitute of all security and protection; it has neither door nor 1265 I, 10 | that our struggles are not protracted to a great length, but that 1266 I, 12 | humble the insolence of the proud, and they who are left shall 1267 I, 5 | them in to be burned, thus proving that the thing seen was 1268 I, 6 | not your hearts, as in the provocation."16 Now that expression " 1269 I, 15 | once perpetrated cannot provoke Him so much as our being 1270 II, 5 | annoys him by abuse, or provokes him by blows; there is only 1271 I, 13 | God of all, even as the Psalmist also when discoursing concerning 1272 I, 16 | Thus at least both the publicans and the harlots inherit 1273 I, 19 | this confession; for the publication of their sins is not accompanied 1274 I, 14 | stark madness. For if any pugilist, leaving his antagonist 1275 I, 19 | had been set up were all pulled down, and all the labor 1276 I, 18 | who builds, and one who pulls down, what have they gained 1277 I, 4 | passionless, even if He punishes, even if He takes vengeance, 1278 I, 4 | to bring them back to a purely sound state of health. Even 1279 I, 16 | they render their souls purer than pure gold, being impelled 1280 I, 12 | He shall sit refining and purifying as it were silver, and as 1281 I, 1 | all these, so also was the purity of thy soul. Now perhaps 1282 I, 14 | not given way, but have pursued the same journey, and this 1283 I, 13 | again hastens forward and pursues the friendship of those 1284 I, 6 | repentance, but if any one has pushed on to the very extremity 1285 I, 8 | this is the cause which puts us far from God, let us 1286 I, 5 | own peculiar power, not by putting down the devices of his 1287 I, 1(2) | the martyr had the name Qeoqo/roj, "the God-hearer, " 1288 I, 15 | was not accompanied by any qualification, but was a simple declaration), 1289 I, 15 | And again: from another quarter, when wishing to show the 1290 I, 11 | tempest of passion in us is quelled and brought to nought, and 1291 I, 4 | despair as being unable to quench the flame which he had kindled 1292 I, 9 | For he who has thoroughly quenched this furnace here, will 1293 I, 19 | some of them make it in quest of a reputation for the 1294 I, 15 | well have despaired, and questioned the possibility of your 1295 I, 13 | but take to flight more quickly than a dream: and even if 1296 II, 5 | no athlete, when he has quitted the lists, and the spectators 1297 I, 12(39)| The LXX. has qumwqh/setai, "shall be made wroth." ~ 1298 I, 13(49)| Isa. lxiv. 4, quoted in 1 Cor. ii. 9~ 1299 I, 3 | blocked the entrance into the race-course, how will he be able while 1300 I, 11 | the sun, and all visible radiance, and not consisting of men 1301 I, 19 | thou art again become more radiant than before, and displaying 1302 I, 14 | Morever when you see a rag with any of these things 1303 I, 16 | there when he is fiercely raging and assaulting us. But after 1304 I, 14 | stones; and we admire the rainbow far more than violets and 1305 I, 1 | possible. For it is He "who raiseth the poor from the earth, 1306 I, 6 | afterwards repented, was ranked amongst the friends of God. 1307 II, 5 | what is one to say to the rascalities of domestic slaves? Is this 1308 II, 1 | taken of thy wealth; but to rasp the knees and hasten to 1309 I, 1 | suffer them to look up, and re-ascend to the position from which 1310 II, 1 | whole days were spent in reading, and whole nights in prayer; 1311 I, 9 | has been destined and made ready of old time. And by way 1312 I, 8 | has actually occurred in real instances. Amongst the Corinthians 1313 I, 10 | astonishment can be sufficiently realized in that day only. For in 1314 II, 1 | blow, he would not have reaped the subsequent benefits. 1315 I, 3 | common to all one might reasonably accuse of much feebleness 1316 I, 17 | him, without uttering any rebuke on account of what had happened 1317 I, 8 | for he himself it is who rebukes the Corinthians countless 1318 I, 8 | And again, when He was rebuking themby the mouth of this 1319 I, 19 | wilt be more secure against receiving any wound of that kind in 1320 I, 13 | the word unto Himself, not reckoning their trespasses unto them, 1321 I, 17 | depart, and exhort this recluse to pray, and put an end 1322 I, 9 | Master as He ought to be recognized. For only when we are in 1323 II, 4 | whole working time. For I recollect hearing you often say, when 1324 I, 13 | that God was in Christ reconciling the word unto Himself, not 1325 I, 5 | power and forethought to recount which occurred both in his 1326 II, 1 | and the broad ocean, and recovers his former wealth. We see 1327 II, 2 | carry the light burden?
