Cyril of Alexandria · A.D. 376–444
Prov 22:28 · Douay-Rheims
“Pass not beyond the ancient bounds which thy fathers have set.”
On this verse:
“We do not permit the faith or the symbol of the faith defined by our holy fathers assembled in their day in Nicea to be shaken by anyone, and we do not trust ourselves or others to change a word of what was laid down there, or to depart from a single syllable of it. For we remember the one who said, "Do not alter the everlasting boundaries which your fathers set."”
