Saint Ignatius of Antioch (30-107)

Epistle to the Antiochians

(Spurious)

Translated by Alexander Roberts and James Donaldson

Chapter 10


Ye masters, do not treat your servants with haughtiness, but imitate patient Job, who declares, “I did not despise the cause of my man-servant, or of my maid-servant, when they contended with me. For what in that case shall I do when the Lord makes an inquisition regarding me?” And you know what follows. Ye servants, do not provoke your masters to anger in anything, lest ye become the authors of incurable mischiefs to yourselves.
