Matthew 2:3 Douay-Rheims

And king Herod hearing this, was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

Leo the Great

c. A.D. 400–461 Patristic

(ubi sup.) Thou art troubled, Herod, without cause. Thy nature cannot contain Christ, nor is the Lord of the world content with the narrow bounds of thy dominion. He, whom thou wouldest not should reign in Judæa, reigns every where.
