Holy Scripture

Genesis 5:11

A church father on this verse
“For it is the mark of a wise man to separate oneself from the pleasures of the flesh, to elevate the soul, and to withdraw from the body; for this is truly to recognize oneself as a human being. He who is called Enos in the Chaldean language is called, in Latin, homo.”
Ambrose of Milan, 4th c. — On Isaac and the Soul, Chapter I
