John Chrysostom, on 1Tim 4:13

John Chrysostom · A.D. 347–407
1Tim 4:13 · Douay-Rheims
“Till I come, attend unto reading, to exhortation, and to doctrine.”
On this verse:
“"Till I come give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine." Even Timothy is commanded to apply to reading. Let us then be instructed not to neglect the study of the sacred writings. Again, observe, he says, "Till I come." Mark how he consoles him, for being as it were an orphan, when separated from him, it was natural that he should require such comfort. "Till I come," he says, give attendance to reading the divine writings, to exhortation of one another, to teaching of all.”
