Rabanus Maurus, on Matt 26:55
Rabanus Maurus · c. A.D. 780–856
Matt 26:55 · Douay-Rheims
“In that same hour Jesus said to the multitudes: You are come out as it were to a robber with swords and clubs to apprehend me. I sat daily with you, teaching in the temple, and you laid not hands on me.”
On this verse:
“And the action suits his name; Caiaphas, i. e. ‘contriving,’ or, ‘politic,’ to execute his villainy; or ‘vomiting from his mouth,’ because of his audacity in uttering a lie, and bringing about the murder. They took Jesus thither, that they might do all advisedly; as it follows, Where the Scribes and the Elders were assembled.”
