Saint Ambrose of Milan
Translated by Theodosia Tomkinson
“I entitled this book Abraham because it occurred to me to consider in orderly fashion the deeds of this Patriarch also. Our treatise concerning him will be moral and simple from the outset. For if we may express the progression, form, and appearance of virtue in a deeper discussion, then it will increase virtue to contemplate also the public signs of his actions.”
