Jerome — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Matthew 13:24-30

Patristic A.D. 420
Jerome · c. A.D. 347–420
“He set forth also this other parable, as it were a rich householder refreshing his guests with various meats, that each one according to the nature of his stomach might find some food adapted to him. He said not ‘a second parable,’ but another; for had He said ‘a second,’ we could not have looked for a third; but another prepares us for many more.”
