Ambrose of Milan — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Luke 4:38-39

Patristic A.D. 397
Ambrose of Milan · A.D. 339–397
“Luke having first introduced a man delivered from an evil spirit, goes on to relate the healing of a woman. For our Lord had come to heal each sex, and he ought first to be healed who was first created. Hence it is said, And he arose out of the synagogue, and entered into Simon’s house.”
