When knowledge ascends above the earthly and above the concern for the work of the earth and begins to test its thoughts in what is hidden from the eyes inside, and in some way begins to neglect that from which there is lewdness of passions, and grief will stretch out, and faith will follow in the care of the age to come , and in the lust of what is promised to us, and in the search for the hidden mysteries, then faith itself absorbs this knowledge, and turns, and gives birth to it again, so that it completely becomes a spirit.

Troparion to the Monk Isaac the Syrian, Bishop of Nineveh, Tone 1

A good priest in the city, / you also settled in the deserts, and flourished, Oh Isaac, / you proved the head of monastics / and the teacher of ascetics, / for this, those who are celebrating worthily your memory, we all call out: / glory to Christ Who glorified you, / glory to Him Who sanctified you, / / glory to Him Who gave us thee, Oh skillful prelate.

Kontakion to Rev. Isaac the Syrian, Bishop of Nineveh, Tone 8

Like a God-bearing and reverend hierarch, / we praise thee as founder of the desert, / Oh Isaac appeared to us priestly. / But as one who has boldness in the Lord, / pray for all who honor thee and cry out to thee: // Rejoice, Oh God-wise Father of ours.
