John Chrysostom — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Matthew 6:14-15

Patristic A.D. 407
John Chrysostom · A.D. 347–407
“He mentions heaven and the Father to claim our attention, for nothing so likens you to God, as to forgive him who has injured you. And it were indeed unmeet should the son of such a Father become a slave, and should one who has a heavenly vocation live as of this earth, and of this life only.”
