[123] νυνὶ μὲν οὖν „λάβετέ μοι“ (Exod. 25, 2) φησὶ διδοὺς τὰ πρέπονθ’ ἑαυτῷ καὶ προτρέπων τὰ δοθέντα μὴ κιβδηλεύειν, ἀλλ’ ἀξίως τοῦ δόντος
¹ φυλάττειν, αὖθις δ’ ἐν ἑτέροις ὁ μηδενὸς χρεῖος ὢν καὶ διὰ τοῦτο λαμβάνων μηδὲν ὁμολογήσει λαμβάνειν, ἕνεκα τοῦ πρὸς εὐσέβειαν ἀλεῖψαι καὶ προθυμίαν ὁσιότητος ἐμποιῆσαι καὶ πρὸς θεραπείαν ἀκονῆσαι τὴν ἑαυτοῦ, ὡς ἀποδεχομένου καὶ δεχομένου τὰς ψυχῆς ἑκουσίους
ἀρεσκείας καὶ γνησίους θεραπείας.

[123] Now therefore he says, "Take for me," assigning himself what becomes him, and admonishing his hearer not to adulterate what is given to him, but to take care of it in a manner worthy of its importance. And again, in another passage, he who has need of nothing, and who on this account takes nothing, will confess that he does take something, for the sake of giving to his worshippers the feeling of piety, and of implanting in them an eagerness after holiness, and moreover sharpening their zeal in his service, as one who favourably receives the genuine worship and service of a willing soul,
