"O madman of love! Was it not enough for you to become incarnate, that you also wanted to die? Was death not enough, that you also descended into hell, drawing out the holy fathers, to fulfill your truth and mercy in them? For your goodness promises good to those who serve you in truth. Therefore, you descended into limbo, to draw out of pain those who had served you and give them the fruit of their labors."
Harrowing of Hell

January 1, 1970
