Clement of Alexandria, on Rom 13:10
Clement of Alexandria · c. A.D. 150–215
Rom 13:10 · Douay-Rheims
“The love of our neighbour worketh no evil. Love therefore is the fulfilling of the law.”
On this verse:
“"God," then, being good, "is love," it is said. Whose "love worketh no ill to his neighhour," neither injuring nor revenging ever, but, in a word, doing good to all according to the image of God. "Love is," then, "the fulfilling of the law; " like as Christ, that is the presence of the Lord who loves us; and our loving teaching of, and discipline according to Christ. By love, then, the commands not to commit adultery, and not to covet one's neighbour's wife, are fulfilled, [these sins being] formerly prohibited by fear.”
