Summary

EN XVIIa: χρόνος μακροθυμίας

The idea of God granting a grace period for sinners to repent was received by Cassian from both Chrysostom and Theodoret.

John Chrysostom, In Genesin, PG.53.181.38–42: Καὶ ὅρα μακροθυμίαν Δεσπότου, πρὸ πόσου χρόνου τὴν πρόῤῥμσιν γενέσθαι ποιεῖ, ἵνα καὶ τὴν οἰκείαν ἐπιδείξηται φιλανθρωπίαν. Ibid. PG.53.191.17–19: ῾´Ιν᾿ οὖν μάθωμεν καὶ μετὰ τὴν ἀγανάκτησιν, καὶ τὴν ἀπειλήν, καὶ τὴν τοσαύτην τοῦ χρόνου μακροθυμίαν, ἣν εἰς μετάνοιαν αὐτοῖς δέδωκεν. Ibid. PG.53.191.25–27: Οὔτε ὁ τῆς τιμωρίας φόβος, οὔτε ὁ τῆς μακροθυμίας χρόνος ἀπέστησεν αὐτοὺς τῶν πονηρῶν πράξεων. Ibid. PG.53.192.55–193.2: Ἀπὸ τοῦ μὴ ὄντος εἰς τὸ εἶναι παρήγαγον, τὴν γνῶσιν τῶν πρακτέων καὶ τῶν μὴ πρακτέων ἐνέθηκα τῇ φύσει, τὸ αὐτεξούσιον ἐδωρησά μην, ἀφάτῳ τῇ μακροθυμίᾳ ἐχρησάμην, καὶ μετὰ τὸν πολὺν χρόνον ἐκεῖνον, καὶ τὴν ἀγανάκτησιν, καὶ τὴν ἀπειλήν, ἣν εἶπον, καὶ ἑτέραν προθεσμίαν ὥρισα, βουλόμενος αὐτοὺς εἰς αἴσθησιν ἐλθόντας τῶν οἰκείων πταισμάτων ἀνακαλέσαεθαι τὴν ἐμὴν ἀγανάκτησιν. Fragmenta in Jeremiam, PG.64.985.21–23: Ὁρᾶς τοῦ Θεοῦ μακροθυμίαν; τοσοῦτον ἠνέσχετο χρόνον αὐτῶν μετὰ τὴν ἀπόστασιν, καὶ τὸ παρασπονδῆσαι.
