Clement of Alexandria, on 1Cor 11:31

Clement of Alexandria · c. A.D. 150–215
1Cor 11:31 · Douay-Rheims
“But if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.”
On this verse:
“Now the Scripture kindles the living spark of the soul, and directs the eye suitably for contemplation; perchance inserting something, as the husbandman when he ingrafts, but, according to the opinion of the divine apostle, exciting what is in the soul. "For there are certainly among us many weak and sickly, and many sleep. But if we judge ourselves, we shall not be judged."”
