[30] And when Jesus finished charging his twelve disciples, he removed thence to [31] teach and preach in their cities. And while they were going in the way they entered into a certain village; and a woman named Martha entertained him in her house. [32][Luke 10:39] And she had a sister named Mary, and she came and sat at the feet of our Lord, [33] and heard his sayings. But Martha was disquieted by much serving; and she came and said unto him, My Lord, givest thou no heed that my sister left me alone to [34] serve? speak to her that she help me. Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, [35] Martha, thou art solicitous and ...

For while Martha, her sister, was cumbered about necessary business, which, although good and useful, yet, when rest shall have succeeded, is to pass away, she herself was resting in the word of the Lord.

Since the reward of a good ...

For who can endure our arrogance when we fail to make men who are our brethren, or even those who are not yet in that relation to us (for our solicitude then should be all the greater to get them to become our brethren), to be seated in our presence, seeing that even a woman sat as she listened to our Lord Himself, in whose service the angels stand alert?[Luke 10:39] Of course if the address is to be but short, or if the place is not well adapted for sitting, they should listen standing. But that should be the case only when there are many hearers, and when they are not to be formally admitted at the time. For ...
