The elder advised us to study the Old Testament: “Kostas,” the elder told me, “study the Old Testament. This is a book inspired, historical, and educational. There we see that the Jewish people sinned, God humbled them, sending war and misfortune; when they came to themselves and fulfilled His law, then He set them free and sent His blessings. "
The elder also advised to study the ancient Greek language. One summer, my son Aristidis and I were in his cell and he told us: “Learn the ancient Greek language. We studied ancient Greek from elementary school. "
