Homilies on Ezekiel, Homilia II · §2

Glad when the Word rebukes our order

Rejoice when Scripture warns us off vices — still more when God’s word strikes our own rank so we turn and are healed. Glory to God. Amen.

Latin

Laeti sumus si Scriptura moneat ut recedamus a vitiis, magis si ordinis nostri aliquos Dei sermo perstringat volentes sanari. Gloria Deo. Amen.
