| Τὸ λέγειν τὸν Ἰακώβ· Ἐὰν δῷ μοι Κύριος ἄρτον φαγεῖν, καὶ ἱμάτιον περιβαλέσθαι, τὴν τῶν μοναχῶν διαγορεύει ζωήν. Ἅγιος Νειλος, Βιβλιον Πρῶτον, Ἐπιστολὴ ΡΟΘ' Λιμενιῳ Μονακῳ Source: Migne PG 79 152 |
When Jacob says, 'If the Lord give to me bread for the eating and a garment to wear,' 1 he clearly declares the life of monks. Saint Nilus of Sinai, Book 1, Letter 179 to Limenius the Monk 1 Gen 28.20 |
