Jerome, on Matt 10:40

“He that receiveth you, receiveth me: and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me.”

“Mystically; He who receives a prophet as a prophet, and understands him speaking of things to come, he shall receive reward of that prophet. The Jews therefore, who understand the prophets carnally, do not receive the prophet’s reward.”
