Glossa Ordinaria, on Matt 5:17
Matt 5:17 · Douay-Rheims
“Do not think that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets. I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.”
On this verse:
“(ord.) Having now exhorted His hearers to undergo all things for righteousness’ sake, and also not to hide what they should receive, but to learn more for others’ sake, that they may teach others, He now goes on to tell them what they should teach, as though He had been asked, ‘What is this which you would not have hid, and for which you would have all things endured? Are you about to speak any thing beyond what is written in the Law and the Prophets;’ hence it is He says, Think not that I am come to subvert the Law or the Prophets.”
