Augustine of Hippo, on 1Pet 5:4
Augustine of Hippo · A.D. 354–430
1Pet 5:4 · Douay-Rheims
“And when the prince of pastors shall appear, you shall receive a never fading crown of glory.”
On this verse:
“While thinking of himself as a martyr to be, Cyprian did not allow himself to forget that he was still a bishop and was more anxious about the account he was to give to the chief shepherd concerning the sheep committed to him than he was about the answer he would give to the unbelieving proconsul, concerning his own faith.”
