1 Corinthians 5:6 Douay-Rheims

Your glorying is not good. Know you not that a little leaven corrupteth the whole lump?

Francis Patrick Kenrick

1796–1863 Catholic

G. P. "leaveneth the whole lump." The ancient manuscript of Clermont has the Vulgate reading. The apostle speaks of old or bad leaven, to which he compares vice. Gal. v. 9. " If he remain unpunished, and his sin be unavenged, he will corrupt others." St. Chrysostom.
