Jerome, on Mark 7:1
Jerome · c. A.D. 347–420
Mark 7:1 · Douay-Rheims
“And there assembled together unto him the Pharisees and some of the scribes, coming from Jerusalem.”
On this verse:
“(in Matt. 15) Wonderful is the folly of the Pharisees and Scribes; they accuse the Son of God, because He keeps not the traditions and precepts of men. But common is here put for unclean; for the people of the Jews, boasting that they were the portion of God, called those meats common, which all made use of.”
