Rh apply: "Ye have an unction from the Holy One, and you know all things," And among those things are, first and above all, the knowledge of God and the knowledge of self, out of which springs mistrust of self. It was of our Divine Lord, whose priesthood we share, that Isaias prophesied: "The spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him: the spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the spirit of counsel and of fortitude, the spirit of knowledge and of godliness. And He shall be filled with the spirit of the fear of the Lord." Of this unction every priest receives, and in the measure in which these seven gifts are cherished by conscious obedience he is conformed to his Divine Master.
