Theophylact of Ohrid, on Heb 13:16

Theophylact of Ohrid · c. 1055–1107
Heb 13:16 · Douay-Rheims
“And do not forget to do good, and to impart; for by such sacrifices God’s favour is obtained.”
On this verse:
“Where are those who justify themselves by their poverty and therefore do not give alms? Let them hear that Paul persuades the poorest, those who have been plundered, not to forget almsgiving. He also calls it "fellowship," and for what reason — we have often spoken about this. Sacrifices of thanksgiving and beneficence. For it is clear that one who is thankful is also generous, since he knows what blessings he will be deemed worthy of.”
