Apologies

It looks like at least some of my translations are going to be put on hold for an indeterminate time as my translation checker, that is, my wife, has given birth to our first born son. As he was born on the day of St. Symeon the New Theologian, that is, March 12/25, I offer up the following for your consideration.

And thus, for those who are instructed and enlightedned and know the mystery of Christianity, according to the measure of their knowledge and their sin, that is, judging by what kind of knowledge and awareness they have of the mystery of Christianity and how severe a sin they have committed-for these ones are required the bindings and the treatments and the scorching and the suffering of evil, that is, fasts, vigils, lying on the floor, bending of the knee, and the rest.
