Dorotheus of Gaza (505-565 or 620, alternative spelling Dorotheos) or Abba Dorotheus, was a Christian monk and abbot. He joined the monastery Abba Serid (or Abba Sveridus) near Gaza through the influence of elders Barsanuphius and John. Around 540 he founded his own monastery nearby and became abbot there.

One of the best books I've read for giving spiritual instruction by means of sayings and thoughts. Also, his life and how he lived it as an ascetic monk in the Egyptian desert environment is helpful to a hermit. Am grateful to have this volume.
