Remigius of Auxerre, on Matt 18:23

Remigius of Auxerre · c. A.D. 841–908
Matt 18:23 · Douay-Rheims
“Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened to a king, who would take an account of his servants.”
On this verse:
“Or perhaps they represent the Angels, or the preachers of the holy Church, or any of the faithful, who when they see a brother whose sins are forgiven refusing to forgive his fellow-servant, they are sorrowful over his perdition. And they came, and told their lord, what was done. They came not in body, but in spirit. To tell their Lord, is to shew the woe and sorrow of the heart in their carriage. It follows, Then his lord called him. He called him by the sentence of death, and bade him pass out of this world, and said unto him, Thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou prayedst me.”
