Mateus 5
Philoxenus of Mabbug
Mateus 5:8
David sheweth in a psalm that the grace of God aboundeth specially with the pure in heart, saying, "God is good to Israel, even to the pure in heart;" now he uniteth purity of heart with the sight of God, for the name Israel is interpreted "He hath seen God". And whosoever is simple and pure in heart is able to see God, even as our Lord spake in His Gospel, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God." — 13 Ascetic Discourses, Discourse 4 -- On Faith: First Discourse on Simplicity
Mateus 5:42
It is the custom of simplicity not to think and then to give, but to all men it divideth and giveth abundantly. And again, our Lord taught this simplicity when He said, "Give unto every one that asketh of thee." — 13 Ascetic Discourses, Discourse 4 -- On Faith: First Discourse on Simplicity
