Quote by Philo of Alexandria

“This is the bread which the Lord hath given you to eat, this is the thing which the Lord hath commanded You." You see now what kind of thing the food of the Lord is, it is the continued word of the Lord, like dew, surrounding the whole soul in a circle, and allowing no portion of it to be without its share of itself.”
