Evagrius Ponticus · Comentário Patrístico (catena)

Salmos 25:6

When people remember, they stir up within themselves the thoughts of things they had known before. But God, when he is mindful of the rational nature, is in that very nature. It is said that he is mindful of him into whom he comes. — NOTES ON THE PSALMS

Salmos 25:8

If someone has mastered irascibility, he has mastered the demons, but if someone is a slave to this passion, he is a complete … stranger to the ways of our Savior, since the Lord is said to teach the gentle his ways. — ON THOUGHTS 13

Salmos 25:15

One who says and does everything so that he may know God always has the eyes of his soul toward the Lord. If one does not receive the spirit of the adoption of the children, he is not made a brother of Christ, nor is the power of the holy made effectual in him; let him say that he is an only child and poor in riches having been deprived of knowledge. — NOTES ON THE PSALMS 24[25].16

Salmos 25:20

Hope does not shame. She is the daughter of uprightness, and uprightness is the offspring of patience, and patience is birthed really in trials that the virtues receive from the enemy and by which the understanding of God is cut off. — NOTES ON THE PSALMS 24[25].20
