verba seniorum is a latin phrase meaning the words of the elders. this is the name given to the latin collections of stories and sayings of the monks who lived in the deserts of Egypt from the third century on. the latin is translated from the greek. a good selection of these stories can be found in the wisdom of the desert by thomas merton.
