Hexaemeron Homily 2. St. Basil critiques those who interpret Genesis 1:2 (the earth was without form & void) to mean that Matter exists eternally without form and God merely used it to build. If Matter is eternal, it has a divine property with God & a single God becomes 2 gods.

A training ground where one learns to know God and by the visible contemplates the invisible.

God has foreseen all, He has neglected nothing. His eye, which never sleeps, watches over all. He is present everywhere & gives to each being the means of preservation. If God has not left the sea urchin outside His providence, is He without care for you? - St. Basil, Hexaemeron

I cannot stress this enough. The sooner you start being grateful & stripping away the pride of feeling that you are undeserving & better than your current situation is the moment when you start recognizing God's grace all around you. The servant is not greater than his master.

And its a continuous process. Every day. The lady who wanted to touch the hem of His garment had to reach for it first. Let us reach for it every day.

St Basil on they who do not accept the common sense of scripture but twist it for their means like dream interpreters. From Hexaemeron.

May He who has given us intelligence to recognize in the smallest objects of creation the great wisdom of the Contriver make us find in great bodies (i.e. sun and the moon) a still higher idea of their Creator. - St. Basil, Hexaemeron

The time which you lend to God is not lost: he will return it to you with large interest. - St. Basil, Hexaemeron

"O copy not the damned! Content yourself with your own lot. Poverty, with what is necessary, is of more value in the eyes of the wise than all pleasures." - St. Basil, Hexaemeron

Evil is not a living animated essence; it is the condition of the soul opposed to virtue, developed in the careless on the account of their falling away from good. - St. Basil

St. Basil (Hexaemeron) on the incompatibility having no free will due to fate/the stars with Christian life & the world. If we have no free will the judge & jury are useless, sowing isnt necessary for a harvest, merchants are rich by fate & there is no punishment of sin.

One night, a fever, a pleurisy... snatches away this man from the midst of men, stripped in a moment...and all this, his glory, is proved a mere dream. Therefore the Prophet (Isaiah) has compared human glory to the weakest flower. - St. Basil, Hexaemeron
