Editing Anthony the Great (section)

=== Silver and gold ===
Another time Anthony was travelling and found a plate of silver coins in his path. Since he was in the middle of the desert, where it didn't make any sense for anyone to be there, he declared that the silver was a temptation from the devil. Immediately after Anthony's declaration, the silver vanished.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Venerable and God-bearing Father Anthony the Great |url=https://oca.org/saints/lives/2015/01/17/100216-venerable-and-god-bearing-father-anthony-the-great |access-date=11 December 2017 |website=oca.org}}</ref> Soon, after walking some more in that desert, he found a pile of gold coins that was also a temptation from the devil. Anthony cast the gold into a fire, and the gold coins immediately disappeared just like the silver ones.

After these two events, he had a vision where the whole world was covered with snares and traps. Anthony prayed saying, "Oh good Lord, who may escape from these snares?” He was responded to by a voice that said, "Humility shall escape them without more."<ref>{{Cite web |last=kostasadmin |date=2023-01-17 |title=St. Antony the Great |url=https://www.orthodoxpath.org/saints-and-elders-lives/st-antony-the-great/ |access-date=2024-11-24 |website=The Orthodox Path |language=en-US}}</ref>
