On the Meeting for the sake of seeking Instruction

Philo of Alexandria · Parte 157

[157] for I am not unaware that whatever pleases thee is in all respects good even though it may not always be pleasant, and is useful even though it be far removed from being agreeable. But admonition and reproof are both good and profitable to those who stand in need of correction, which indeed the holy scriptures call by another name, and denominate affliction. [cap.28] -
