In the flood of christian ascetics who left the world to seek
God alone, Simeon chose a novel withdrawal. He mounted a pillar and
remained there the rest of his life. To him came supplicants with
al kinds of problems: personal anguish, sickness and pain,
infertility, sin, and social transgression. Public issues were
mediated at his shrine and slaves manumitted. Three views of the
Stylite in three lives.
