Philoxenus of Mabbug
Patristic
c. A.D. 450–523
“Now this is the first lust which conquered the world, and because of it the first transgression of the law took place. And by its exceeding dainties Solomon also was led into the error of idols. And even to-day it corrupteth every thing, for because of it the world is exhausted, and for its pleasure creation runneth its course; for its sake all the children of men work slavery, and it seemeth as if the door could be shut in the face of all wickedness if it did not exist.”
