Hilary of Poitiers, on Matt 5:17

“Do not think that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets. I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.”

“Or, He calls the passion, and the cross, the least, which if one shall not confess openly, but be ashamed of them, he shall be least, that is, last, and as it were no man; but to him that confesses it He promises the great glory of a heavenly calling.”
