Oecumenius, on Acts 20:19

“Serving the Lord with all humility, and with tears, and temptations which befell me by the conspiracies of the Jews;”

“"With all humility and tears." Here he shows a character of teaching: the generous, the tireless, and the sympathetic; for he suffered for those who were perishing, for those who were being destroyed; and humility; and not simply, but, he says, with all humility; (for there are many kinds of humility, in word, in deed, toward rulers, toward those ruled;) and speaking what was beneficial; for there were things that ought not to be learned. For just as to hide something is from envy, so to tell them everything is from folly. And for this reason he added, "anything that was profitable," signifying that he did not only speak, but also taught.”
