Matthew 7:15
Douay-Rheims
Beware of false prophets, who come to you in the clothing of sheep, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
John Chrysostom
Yet He may seem here to have aimed under the title of false prophets, not so much at the heretic, as at those who, while their life is corrupt, yet wear an outward face of virtuousness; whence it is said, By their fruits ye shall know them. For among heretics it is possible many times to find a good life, but among those I have named never.
