2 John 1:10 Douay-Rheims

If any man come to you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into the house nor say to him, God speed you.

Glossa Ordinaria

Medieval

Nor say to him, Hail. Because it seems a sign of consent to his error; for we say this to friends whose works please us. And even if you yourselves were perhaps not deceived, others might still be deceived through such familiarity on your part, who would believe that those men were pleasing to you, and so would believe them.
