Peter Chrysologus, on Matt 28:8

Peter Chrysologus · c. A.D. 380–450
Matt 28:8 · Douay-Rheims
“And they went out quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy, running to tell his disciples.”
On this verse:
“(Serm. 80.) They held His feet to shew that the head of Christ is the man, but that the woman is in Christ’s feet, and that it was given to them through Christ, not to go before, but to follow the man. Christ also repeats what the Angel had said, that what an Angel had made sure, Christ might make yet more sure. It follows, Then saith Jesus unto them, Fear not.”
