Matthew 21:3 Douay-Rheims

And if any man shall say anything to you, say ye, that the Lord hath need of them: and forthwith he will let them go.

John Chrysostom (attributed)

Patristic

He said not to His disciples, Say, Thy Lord, or Your Lord, hath need of them; that they may understand, that He is Lord alone, not of the beasts only, but of all men; for even sinners are by the law of nature His, though by their own will they are the Devil’s.
