Gregory of Nyssa, on Eccl 3:7
Gregory of Nyssa · c. A.D. 335–395
Eccl 3:7 · Douay-Rheims
“A time to rend, and a time to sew. A time to keep silence, and a time to speak.”
On this verse:
“When it to comes to words about God and searching his essence there is a time for silence, but when it concerns some good operation of which we have knowledge, it is time to speak of God's power, miracles and works which necessitate words. A creature should not overstep its bounds with regard to transcendent matters but remain content with knowledge of himself.”
