CommentJohn ChrysostomPublic domainMatthew 10:26–28

Observe how He sets them above all others, encouraging them to set at nought cares, reproaches, perils, yea even the most terrible of all things, death itself, in comparison of the fear of God.

“But rather fear him, who can destroy both soul and body in hell.”

Reproduced in full. Translation: Oxford 1841 (Newman), public domain (Public domain).
