John Chrysostom — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Matthew 9:27-31

Patristic A.D. 407
John Chrysostom · A.D. 347–407
“That He said to another man, Go, and proclaim the glory of God, (Luke 8:39.) is not contrary to this; for what He would teach is, that we should hinder those that would commend us for ourselves. But when it is the Lord’s glory that is to be praised, we ought not to forbid, but to promote it ourselves.”
