Remigius of Auxerre, on Matt 23:32
Remigius of Auxerre · c. A.D. 841–908
Matt 23:32 · Douay-Rheims
“Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.”
On this verse:
“It should be enquired too how He says, to the blood of Zacharias, since the blood of many more saints was afterwards shed. This is thus explained. Abel a keeper of sheep was killed in the field, Zacharias a priest was slain in the court of the temple. The Lord therefore names these two, because by these all holy martyrs are denoted, both of lay and priestly order.”
