3 John 1:4 Douay-Rheims

I have no greater grace than this, to hear that my children walk in truth.

Glossa Ordinaria

Medieval

Greater than these. I rejoiced for this reason, that of these brethren who come I have no greater favour — that is: when the brethren come to me, in no deed or word of theirs do I rejoice more than when they announce that my sons, whom I have begotten by preaching or by baptizing, keep the truth of right faith and of right action.
