ἐνταῦθα δὴ μεγάλη τις οἰκονομία τοῦ θεοῦ ἐγίνετο, καὶ ἔλεος ἀμέτρητον “ἀνεφαίνετο Ἰησοῦ, σπανίως μὲν ἐν τῇ ἀδελφότητι γεγονὸς, μὴ ἀπολειπόμενον δὲ τῆς τέχνης τοῦ Χριστοῦ.

Then a great dispensation of God took place, and the immeasurable mercy of Jesus was revealed, such as has rarely happened in the brotherhood, yet not beyond the skill of Christ.
