Jer 10:15 · Douay-Rheims
“They are vain things and a ridiculous work: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.”
Patristic before A.D. 750

A.D.
Jerome Patristic
c. A.D. 347–420
“(Verse 15.) They are worthless and fit only for ridicule. They will perish at the time of their visitation. They are vain and worthy of laughter. For who would not laugh when they see the images of heretics? Either they are rustic and wooden, or they are composed in beautiful language and contain silver, or they are admittedly simulated with their own sense and falsely promise the image of gold. In the time of their visitation, they will perish. Heresy is valuable for a time, so that the chosen ones may be made manifest and proven. But when the visitation of God comes and His foolish eye sees everything, all things fall silent (I Cor. XI).”
