Medieval Catena Aurea: Gospel of Matthew, as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Matthew 2:3-6

Glossa Ordinaria, on Matt 2:3

Matt 2:3 · Douay-Rheims
“And king Herod hearing this, was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.”
On this verse:
“(ord.) Jerusalem was troubled with him, as willing to favour him whom it feared; the vulgar always pay undue honour to one who tyrannizes over it. Observe the diligence of his enquiry. If he should find him, he would do to him as he shewed afterwards his disposition; if he should not, he would at least be excused to the Romans.”
