After falling ill, St. Jerome resolved to renounce forever all that kept him back from God
Spirituality
“At Antioch St. Jerome fell seriously ill, and resolved to renounce forever all that kept him back from God. He was passionately fond of the old Latin Classics and disliked the uncouth style of the Scriptures. In a dream, which he has described for us in minute detail, Christ appeared to him in the form of a stern judge, who reproached him severely and scourged him unmercifully for caring more to be a good Ciceronian than a good Christian. When he awoke he vowed to devote his intellect henceforth to the study of the Scriptures.” (Laux, Church History, p. 136)
