The Sayings of the Desert Fathers: The Apophthegmata Patrum - Cistercian Studies Series Revised edition
Benedicta Ward
`Give me a word, Father', visitors to early desert monks asked. The responses of these pioneer ascetics were remembered and in the fourth century written down in Coptic, Syriac, Greek, and later Latin. Their Sayings were collected and read by generations of Christians as life-giving words that would help readers along the path to salvation.
