John Chrysostom — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Matthew 9:9-13

Patristic A.D. 407
John Chrysostom · A.D. 347–407
“(Hom. xxx.) Having wrought this miracle, Christ would not abide in the same place, lest He should rouse the envy of the Jews. Let us also do thus, not obstinately opposing those who lay in wait for us. And as Jesus departed thence, (namely from the place in which He had done this miracle,) he saw a man sitting at the receipt of custom, Matthew by name.”
