John Chrysostom, on Acts 13:3
John Chrysostom · A.D. 347–407
Acts 13:3 · Douay-Rheims
“Then they, fasting and praying, and imposing their hands upon them, sent them away.”
On this verse:
“"And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away." Seest thou what a great thing fasting is? A great, yes a great good is fasting: it is circumscribed by no limits. When need was to ordain, then they fast: and to them while fasting, the Spirit spake.”
