Theophylact of Ohrid — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Luke 12:41-46

Orthodox 1107
Theophylact of Ohrid · c. 1055–1107
“Now from not considering the time of our departure, there proceed many evils. For surely if we thought that our Lord was coming, and that the end of our life was at hand, we should sin the less. Hence it follows, And shall begin to strike the man servants and maidens, and to eat and drink and be drunken.”
