St Basil the Great, tr. Lowther Clarke, 1925

Chapter 30

That the sacred things must not be insulted by admixture of things destined for secular needs.

Mt. xxi. 12; 13 ἐποιήσατε for ποιεῖτε K, αὐτόν after verb; 1 Cor. xi. 22; 34 add δέ after εἰ K.

That what is dedicated to God must be honoured as holy for as long a time as the will of God is observed in it.

Mt. xxiii. 37 ὄρνις before ἐπισυνάγει; 38.
