Patristic Quote of the Day

But this is the day of retribution for all transgressions, of which all the prophets write, and most especially Isaiah cries out: “Behold, the incurable day of the Lord comes, a day of fury and wrath, to make the whole world a desert and to destroy sinners from it.” This day is rightly named “incurable,” for when the Day of Judgment comes, there will not be opportunity for repentance.—Jerome, On Joel 1.15.
