  • St. Paul the Simple Catholic.Net
    St. Paul the Simple Catholic.net St. Paul the Simple of Egypt (d. ca. 339) was a hermit and disciple of St. Anthony the Great. St John, the Abbot of Sinai wrote "Paul the Simple was a clear example for us, for he was the rule and type of blessed simplicity."[2] He was also, with contemporary St. Paul of Egypt, the First Hermit. The account of his life is found in Palladius of Helenopolis De Vitis Patrum 8,28 and Tyrannius Rufinus Historia Eremitica 31. Life Paul was a farmer who, at the age of sixty, discovered that his beautiful wife was having an affair and so left her to become a hermit. Approaching St. Anthony, Paul indicated his desire to become a monk. Anthony responded by saying it would be quite impossible for a man of sixty years to adopt such a radical life style. He instead encouraged Paul to be content with the life of being a thankful and pious labourer. Paul was unsatisfied with this answer and responded by pleading his will to learn. Anthony said that if he wished to be a monk he should go to a cenobium. With this St. Anthony shut the door, and Paul remained outside. On the fourth day St. Anthony, fearing lest he should die, took him in. He set him to work weaving a rope out of palm leaves, made him undo what he had done, and do it again. That night at dinner, St. Anthony took a crust of bread and gave three to Paul. When each had eaten one crust, Anthony told Paul to eat another.

  • 1.4 Humility
    CHAPTER 4 HUMILITY "Whoever does not want to enter through the door of humility, would not find the Divine Pasture, and who wants to enter from another door is a thief" (St. John El-Dargy) A) A general word about humility B) Humility in the life of the Lord and His saints C) Humility is the basis of all virtues D) What does humility do? E) How do we possess humility? F) Acquiring humility G) Your life in the light of humility H) Humility in relation to some other virtues 1 A) A GENERAL WORD ABOUT HUMILITY WHAT IS HUMILITY? Humility is not the mere outer appearance of a person, such as dressing in rough clothes, talking with a soft voice, or walking with a bowed head. Also it is not merely expressed by words a person repeats to others saying that he is a sinner, wicked and not worthy. Neither it is expressed by words one repeats to God declaring his triviality, humiliation and spiritual poverty. It is not just this, because, if so, then it is possible for everybody to become a humble person. Humility is a life one lives between himself and God, in which he feels he is nil and nothing, even less than nothing, and whatever good or righteousness he has, is from God, and without God he is but dust, darkness and evil. St. Isaac once said "A person who mentions his pitfalls and sins to humble himself, though this is very good, is not called a humble person. A humble person is he who comes nearer to humility and tries to reach it.
