Have you ever said the word exomologesis so many times in your whole life?! From On Fasting, I assumed it meant 'eating only dry food as penance' but it seems to not specify any particular act.dronald wrote: ↑December 27th, 2020, 10:28 pm Repentance is ready for PL.
You'll notice a change in tune from this work to his work on "On Modesty." I'm not quite sure what got into him. He went from believing that it's irrational to think that you should ever sin again after becoming a Christian *but* if you do sin again there perhaps remains some hope for salvation; to believing that if you ever do something evil after becoming a Christian, that you're damned to hell forever.
Appreciate the PL from other people. The final works I have are quite short besides Prescription against Heretics. I should be done soon.
Enjoy.
Section 12 PL Notes:
Asterisk as usual means check whether this was the pronunciation you intended. You are free to keep them as they are.
04:08 Harbringer for harbinger
11:56 Check whether you really mean consciousness and not conscience (I haven't checked the text)
13:09 *felicity
42:53 *personage
Interesting that he seems to use the same parables (lost sheep, lost coin) in exactly the opposite way to On Modesty. He seems to think repentance is a work so I can see how the seeds of On Modesty are latent here. But certainly better than his later tendencies!
