[220] τούτων οὖν τῶν τρόπων ἑκάτερος ἔχει καθάπερ τινὰς ποίμνας καὶ ἀγέλας, ὁ μὲν τῶν ἐκτὸς ὀρεγόμενος ἄργυρον, χρυσόν, ἐσθῆτας, πάντα ὅσα τοῦ πλουτεῖν ὗλαι καὶ παρασκευαί, καὶ πάλιν ὅπλα, μηχανήματα,
τριήρεις, ἱππικὴν καὶ πεζικὴν καὶ ναυτικὴν δύναμιν, τὰς πρὸς ἡγεμονίαν ἀφορμάς, ἐξ ὧν περιγίνεται τὸ βεβαίως κρατεῖν, ὁ δὲ καλοκἀγαθίας ἐραστὴς τὰ καθ’ ἑκάστην ἀρετὴν δόγματα καὶ τὰ σοφίας αὐτῆς ¹ θεωρήματα.

Translations (1)

On the Life of the Wise Man made perfect by Instruction or, on the Unwritten Law, that is to say, on Abraham First1KGreek (The works of Philo Judaeus, the contemporary of Josephus, Volume 2. Yonge, C. D., translator. London: Henry G. Bohn, 1854.) — 220 focus

[220] Each then of these dispositions has, as it were, flocks and herds. The one which desires external things has for its flock, gold and silver, and all those things which are the materials and furniture of wealth; and, moreover, arms, engines, triremes, armies of infantry and cavalry, and fleets of ships, and all kinds of provisions to procure dominion, by which firm authority is secured. But the lover of excellence has for his flock the doctrines of each individual virtue, and its speculations respecting wisdom.
