Yet you say, ‘Because I am innocent, surely His anger shall turn from me.’ Behold, I will plead My case against you, Because you say, ‘I have not sinned.’
Commentary
“The man who is conscious of his sins is greater than he who profits the whole world by the sight of his countenance. The man who is deemed worthy to see himself is greater than he who is deemed worthy to see the angels. The man who follows Christ in solitary mourning is greater than he who praises Christ amid the congregations of men.”
~ St Isaac the Syrian
