Matthew 5:14
Douay-Rheims
You are the light of the world. A city seated on a mountain cannot be hid.
John Chrysostom
Mark how great His promise to them, men who were scarce known in their own country that the fame of them should reach to the ends of the earth. The persecutions which He had foretold, were not able to dim their light, yea they made it but more conspicuous.
