Jerome — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Matthew 10:26-28

Patristic A.D. 420
Jerome · c. A.D. 347–420
“How is it then that in the present world, the sins of so many are unknown? It is of the time to come that this is said; the time when God shall judge the hidden things of men, shall enlighten the hidden places of darkness, and shall make manifest the secrets of hearts. The sense is, Fear not the cruelty of the persecutor, or the rage of the blasphemer, for there shall come a day of judgment in which your virtue and their wickedness will be made known.”
