Theophylact of Ohrid, on Acts 20:34

Theophylact of Ohrid · c. 1055–1107
Acts 20:34 · Douay-Rheims
“You yourselves know: for such things as were needful for me and them that are with me, these hands have furnished.”
On this verse:
“And he spoke even more loftily further on: "You yourselves know that these hands of mine served my needs and the needs of those who were with me." Yes, true almsgiving consists in giving from one's own labors. But pay attention to the fact that this was a man who labored while constantly conversing: both day and night.”
