Patristic Quote of the Day

You go astray, Peter, just as the other Evangelists attests: you do not know what you are saying. Do not seek three tabernacles. Seek only the tabernacle of the gospel in which the law and the prophets are to be recapitulated. By seeking three tabernacles you appear to be comparing incommensurably the two servants with the one Lord. Seek only the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, for in these there is one God, who is to be worshipped in the tabernacle of your heart.—St. Jerome, Commentary on Matthew
