Jeremiah 2:5 Douay-Rheims

Thus saith the Lord: What iniquity have your fathers found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain?

John Chrysostom

A.D. 347–407 Patristic

"What transgression have your fathers found in me?" … showing their thankless disposition, and that when in the enjoyment of all things, they requited it by the contraries; but here God expresses it with yet greater force.
