Patristic Quote of the DAy

Answering “Who are the poor in spirit?”
For He means here them who are awestruck, and tremble at the commandments of God. Whom also by His prophet Isaiah God earnestly accepting said, “To whom will I look, but to him who is meek and quiet, and trembles at My words?” —St. Jn Chrys., Homily 15 on St. Matthew
