Luke 6 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria Stromata Book II

As ye do, so shall it be done to you; as ye give, so shall it be given to you; as ye judge, so shall ye be judged; as ye show kindness, so shall kindness be shown to you: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again."[210]

Luke 6 - NIV, NAB - in A Treatise of Novatian Concerning the Trinity

so as God He is declared to be "Lord of the Sabbath."[74]

Luke 6 - NIV, NAB - in The Second Epistle of Pope Fabian

For there was no laying of accusations against each other among them, except what was friendly; neither ought there ever to be such among their followers or among believers: for the Lord says, "Do not that to another which thou wouldst not have done to thyself."[3]

Luke 6:1 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria Stromata Book VI

" And that it is said, that we and the Greeks know the same God, though not in the same way, he will infer thus: "Neither worship as the Jews; for they, thinking that they only know God, do not know Him, adoring as they do angels and archangels, the month and the moon. And if the moon be not visible, they do not hold the Sabbath, which is called the first;[65]

Luke 6:1 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

-as from the example of David, when he went into the temple on the Sabbath, and provided food by boldly breaking up the shew-bread.[385]

Luke 6:1 - NIV, NAB - in Archelaus Acts of the Disputation with the Heresiarch Manes

And further, He did not restrain His disciples from plucking the ears of corn and rubbing them with their hands on the Sabbath-day,[428]

Luke 6:3 - NIV, NAB - in Irenaeus Against Heresies Book IV

And therefore did the Lord say to those who were blaming His disciples because they plucked and ate the ears of corn, rubbing them in their hands, "Have ye not read this, what David did, when himself was an hungered; how he went into the house of God, and ate the shew-bread, and gave to those who were with him; which it is not lawful to eat, but for the priests alone? "[90]

Luke 6:5 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

He was called "Lord of the Sabbath,"[404]

Luke 6:7 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

example-is He therefore alien from the Creator? Then the Pharisees watch whether He would heal on the Sabbath-day,[393]

Luke 6:9 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

Wishing, therefore, to initiate them into this meaning of the law by the restoration of the withered hand, He requires, "Is it lawful on the Sabbath-days to do good, or not? to save life, or to destroy it? "[401]

Luke 6:12 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

Surely to Sion He brings good tidings, and to Jerusalem peace and all blessings; He goes up into a mountain, and there spends a night in prayer,[423]

Luke 6:12 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Epistle VII

For the apostles also ceased not to pray day and night; and the Lord also Himself, the teacher of our discipline, and the way of our example, frequently and watch-fully prayed, as we read in the Gospel: "He went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God."[16]

Luke 6:13 - NIV, NAB - in Irenaeus Against Heresies Book I

years of age when He disputed with the teachers of the law, and by the election of the apostles, for of these there were twelve.[34]

Luke 6:13 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

apostles,[433]

Luke 6:14 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

Again, He changes the name of Simon to peter,[444]

Luke 6:19 - NIV, NAB - in Irenaeus Against Heresies Book IV

"For there was," He says, "a rich man, who was clothed in purple and fine linen, and delighted himself with splendid feasts."[19]

Luke 6:20 - NIV, NAB - in Epistle of Polycarp to the Philippians

and once more, "Blessed are the poor, and those that are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of God."[20]

Luke 6:20 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Idolatry

But even now you have the Lord's sayings, as examples taking away from you all excuse. For what is it you say? "I shall be in need." But the Lord calls the needy "happy."[79]

Luke 6:20 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

"because theirs is the kingdom of heaven."[457]

Luke 6:20 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

"Blessed are the needy, because theirs is the kingdom of heaven."[485]

Luke 6:20 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian To His Wife Book II

To a Christian believer it is irksome to wed a believer inferior to herself in estate, destined as she will be to have her wealth augmented in the person of a poor husband! For if it is "the pour," not the rich, "whose are the kingdoms of the heavens,"[57]

Luke 6:20 - NIV, NAB - in Recognitions of Clement I

"Then Caiaphas attempted to impugn the doctrine of Jesus, saying that He spoke vain things, for He said that the poor are blessed;[58]

Luke 6:21 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

venly, it is quite clear that heaven has been as yet the property of no other God whatever, than Him who owns the earth also; quite clear that the Creator has given even the lesser promises (of earthly blessing), in order that I may more readily believe Him concerning His greater promises (of heavenly blessings) also, than (Marcion's god), who has never given proof of his liberality by any preceding bestowal of minor blessings. "Blessed are they that hunger, for they shall be filled."[475]

Luke 6:21 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

Meanwhile the promise of fulness to the hungry is a provision of God the Creator. "Blessed are they that weep, for they shall laugh."[480]

Luke 6:21 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

"Blessed are they that hunger, for they shall be filled."[487]

Luke 6:21 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

"Blessed are they that weep, for they shall laugh."[489]

Luke 6:21 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Fasting

How unworthy, also, is the way in which you interpret to the favour of your own lust the fact that the Lord "ate and drank" promiscuously! But I think that He must have likewise "fasted" inasmuch as He has pronounced, not "the full; "but "the hungry and thirsty, blessed: "[104]

Luke 6:22 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria Stromata Book IV

" And, "Blessed are ye when men shall hate you, when they shall separate you, when they shall cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake; "[58]

Luke 6:22 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

one), which bade him say, "Blessed shall ye be, when men shall bate you, and shall reproach you, and shall cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake."[493]

Luke 6:22 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Of Patience

If the tongue's bitterness break out in malediction or reproach, look back at the saying, "When they curse you, rejoice."[89]

Luke 6:22 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Epistle LV

And again He says, "Blessed are ye when men shall hate you, and shall separate you from their company, and shall cast you out, and shall reproach your name as evil for the Son of man's sake. Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy; for, behold your reward is great in heaven."[10]

Luke 6:22 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Treatise III On the Lapsed

If we know these things, and have found them out from the truth of the Lord who promises, not only is not loss of this kind to be feared, but even to be desired; as the Lord Himself again announces and warns us, "Blessed are ye when men shall persecute you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall cast you out, and shall speak of your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake! Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy; for, behold, your reward is great in heaven."[17]

Luke 6:22 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Treatise XI Exhortation to Martyrdom Addressed to Fortunatus

And again: "Blessed shall ye be when men shall hate you, and shall separate you, and shall expel you, and shall revile your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake. Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy; for, behold, your reward is great in heaven."[113]

Luke 6:22 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Treatise XII Three Books of Testimonies Against the Jews

Of this same thing, according to Luke: "Blessed shall ye be when men shall hate you, and shall separate you (from their company), and shall drive you out, and shall speak evil of your name, as wicked, for the Son of man's sake. Rejoice in that day, and exult; for, lo, your reward is great in heaven."[485]

Luke 6:22 - NIV, NAB - in Constitutions of the Holy Apostles Book V

Do you also rejoice when ye suffer such things, for ye shall be blessed in that day.[4]

Luke 6:23 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Scorpiace

! He will have commanded either no martyrdoms at all, or those which must be understood in a sense different from the ordinary, being such a person as to urge no one to a risk of this kind as to promise no reward to them who suffer for Him, because He does not wish them to suffer; and therefore does He say, when setting forth His chief commands, "Blessed are they who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."[57]

Luke 6:23 - NIV, NAB - in Origen Commentary on Matthew Book X

Wherefore blessed are they who suffer the same things as the prophets, according to what was said by the Saviour, "For in the same manner did their fathers unto the prophets."[126]

Luke 6:24 - NIV, NAB - in Irenaeus Against Heresies Book III

And in His office of teacher this is what He has said to the rich: "Woe unto you that are rich, for ye have received your consolation; "[243]

Luke 6:24 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

which accompany riches; and it is because of these that woes are denounced on the rich, even in the Gospel. "Ye have received," says He, "your consolation; "[529]

Luke 6:25 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

He inflicts a woe also on "the full, because they shall hunger; on those too which laugh now, because they shall mourn."[544]

Luke 6:25 - NIV, NAB - in Dionysius A Commentary on the Beginning of Ecclesiastes

A time to weep, when it is the time of suffering; as when the Lord also says, "Verily I say unto you, that ye shall weep and lament."[33]

Luke 6:26 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

"In the like manner," says He,[501]

Luke 6:26 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

"Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets."[548]

Luke 6:27 - NIV, NAB - in Athenagoras A Plea for the Christians

What, then, are those teachings in which we are brought up? "I say unto you, Love your enemies; bless them that curse you; pray for them that persecute you; that ye may be the sons of your Father who is in heaven, who causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust."[35]

Luke 6:27 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria The Instructor Book III

" And He says: "If any one strike thee on the one cheek, turn to him the other also; and if any one take away thy coat, hinder him not from taking thy cloak also."[195]

Luke 6:27 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian A Treatise on the Soul

He bids us, therefore, show a kindly disposition to such a man. "Love your enemies," says He, "pray for them that curse you,"[243]

Luke 6:27 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

"But I say unto you which hear" (displaying here that old injunction, of the Creator: "Speak to the ears of those who lend them to you"[554]

Luke 6:27 - NIV, NAB - in 2 Clement

"There is no thank unto you, if ye love them that love you; but there is thank unto you, if ye love your enemies and them that hate you; "[97]

Luke 6:28 - NIV, NAB - in First Apology of Justin

But I say unto you, Pray for your enemies, and love them that hate you, and bless them that curse you, and pray for them that despitefully use you."[23]

Luke 6:28 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

upon the Pharisees and doctors of the law.[1097]

Luke 6:28 - NIV, NAB - in Lactantius Divine Institutes Book VI

He must not receive a gift from a poor man; so that if he himself has afforded anything, it may be good, inasmuch as it is gratuitous. If any one reviles, he must answer him with a blessing;[132]

Luke 6:28 - NIV, NAB - in Constitutions of the Holy Apostles Book I

In the same manner it is written inn the Gospel: "Bless them that curse you."[13]

Luke 6:29 - NIV, NAB - in First Apology of Justin

And let your good works shine before men, that they, seeing them, may glorify your Father which is in heaven."[27]

Luke 6:29 - NIV, NAB - in Irenaeus Against Heresies Book IV

For "to him that taketh away thy coat," He says, "give to him thy cloak also; and from him that taketh away thy goods, ask them not again; and as ye would that men should do unto you, do ye unto them: "[157]

Luke 6:29 - NIV, NAB - in Irenaeus Against Heresies Book IV

a comparison be instituted between us and them, [I would ask] which party shall seem to have received [their worldly goods] in the fairer manner? Will it be the [Jewish] people, [who took] from the Egyptians, who were at all points their debtors; or we, [who receive property] from the Romans and other nations, who are under no similar obligation to us? Yea, moreover, through their instrumentality the world is at peace, and we walk on the highways without fear, and sail where we will.[420]

Luke 6:29 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria Exhortation to the Heathen

of reason and words of sanctity which are inscribed on men's hearts: "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself; to him who strikes thee on the cheek, present also the other; "[150]

Luke 6:29 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

and bids us, on the contrary, "to him who smiteth us on the one cheek, to offer the other also, and to give up our coat to him that taketh away our cloak."[561]

Luke 6:29 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Of Patience

unless he be a man likewise to offer to one who takes away his coat his cloak as well?[78]

Luke 6:29 - NIV, NAB - in Archelaus Acts of the Disputation with the Heresiarch Manes

but that our Lord bade us offer the other cheek also to him who smote the one.[425]

Luke 6:29 - NIV, NAB - in Didache

If one give thee a blow upon thy right cheek, turn to him the other also;[12]

Luke 6:29 - NIV, NAB - in Didache

If one take away thy cloak, give him also thy coat.[14]

Luke 6:29 - NIV, NAB - in Constitutions of the Holy Apostles Book VII

"If any one gives thee a stroke on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also."[18]

Luke 6:29 - NIV, NAB - in Constitutions of the Holy Apostles Book VII

And, "He that will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also."[21]

Luke 6:29 - NIV, NAB - in Clementine Homily XV

which rather appeared to me to be very unjust, and I shall tell you how. He alleged that it was right to present to him who strikes you on the one cheek the other[15]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in Epistle of Barnabas

Thou shalt not hesitate to give, nor murmur when thou givest. "Give to every one that asketh thee,"[266]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in First Apology of Justin

For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for it? Lay up treasure, therefore, in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt."[24]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria Stromata Book III

" Dicunt itaque ex iis quemdam, cum ad hostram virginem vultu formosam accessisset, dixisse: Scriptum est: "Da omni te petenti: "[20]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria Who is the Rich Man that Shall Be Saved?

But better than this is the saying spoken by the Lord in another place, "Give to every one that asketh thee."[54]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

This, however, is (the principle) of your good and simply beneficent god-to do a wrong to patience, to open the door to violence, to leave the righteous undefended, and the wicked unrestrained! "Give to every one that asketh of thee"[581]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Baptism

But they whose office it is, know that baptism is not rashly to be administered. "Give to every one who beggeth thee,"[181]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Baptism

his host, speedily recognized him to be "an appointed vessel of election." God's approbation sends sure premonitory tokens before it; every "petition "[188]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Baptism

trusted with divine! Let them know how to "ask" for salvation, that you may seem (at least) to have given "to him that asketh."[194]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Monogamy

the law and the apostle-if, notwithstanding, you care even about this-with what face do you request (the solemnizing of) a matrimony which is unlawful to those of whom you request it; of a monogamist bishop, of presbyters and deacons bound by the same solemn engagement, of widows whose Order you have in your own person refused? And they, plainly, will give husbands and wives as they would morsels of bread; for this is their rendering of "To every one who asketh thee thou shalt give!"[86]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in Didache

If one take from thee thine own, ask it not back[15]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in Didache

for indeed thou art not able. 5. Give to every one that asketh thee, and ask it not back;[16]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in Constitutions of the Holy Apostles Book III

For it is our duty to do good to all men, not fondly preferring one or another, whoever they be. For the Lord says: "Give to every one that asketh of thee."[8]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in Constitutions of the Holy Apostles Book VII

"And from him that taketh thy goods, require them not again."[22]

Luke 6:30 - NIV, NAB - in The Second Epistle of Pope Fabian

And in another place: "Of him that taketh away thy goods, ask them not again."[15]

Luke 6:31 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria The Instructor Book III

Here is then a comprehensive precept, and an exhortation of life, all-embracing: "As ye would that men should do unto you, do ye likewise to, them."[176]

Luke 6:31 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

So that, whatever was the ampler scope of His teaching, He received it all in His heritage of the nations. "And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise."[597]

Luke 6:31 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Scorpiace

And, "As ye would that men should do to you, do ye likewise so to, them."[65]

Luke 6:31 - NIV, NAB - in Didache

and all things whatsoever thou wouldst should not occur to thee, thou also to another do not do.[6]

Luke 6:32 - NIV, NAB - in Athenagoras A Plea for the Christians

the Father with the Son, what is the Spirit, what is the unity of these three, the Spirit, the Son, the Father, and their distinction in unity; and who know that the life for which we look is far better than can be described in words, provided we arrive at it pure from all wrong-doing; who, moreover, carry our benevolence to such an extent, that we not only love our friends ("for if ye love them," He says, "that love you, and lend to them that lend to you, what reward will ye have? "[39]

Luke 6:32 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Treatise XII Three Books of Testimonies Against the Jews

In the Gospel according to Luke: "If ye love those who love you, what thank have ye? For even sinners love those who love them."[622]

Luke 6:32 - NIV, NAB - in Lactantius Divine Institutes Book VI

" What is the meaning of "suitable? " Assuredly those who are able to restore and give back the favour.[88]

Luke 6:32 - NIV, NAB - in Didache

, if ye love them that love you? Do not also the Gentiles do the same?[9]

Luke 6:32 - NIV, NAB - in Constitutions of the Holy Apostles Book VII

"Love your enemies; for what thanks is it if ye love those that love you? for even the Gentiles do the same."[15]

Luke 6:32 - NIV, NAB - in 2 Clement

For, whenever they hear from us that God saith, "No thank have ye, if ye love them which love you, but ye have thank, if ye love your enemies and them which hate you "[66]

Luke 6:34 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

And now, on the subject of a loan, when He asks, "And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? "[611]

Luke 6:35 - NIV, NAB - in Dialogue of Justin

For He taught us to pray for our enemies also, saying, `Love your enemies; be kind and merciful, as your heavenly Father is.'[372]

Luke 6:35 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria The Instructor Book I

Now, that the God and Father of our Lord Jesus is good, the Word Himself will again avouch: "For He is kind to the unthankful and the evil; "and further, when He says," Be merciful, as your Father is merciful."[167]

Luke 6:35 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

Now, when He commands that a debt be remitted to a man who shall be unable to pay it (for it is a still stronger argument when He forbids its being asked for from a man who is even able to repay it), what else does He teach than that we should lend to those of whom we cannot receive again, inasmuch as He has imposed so great a loss on lending? "And ye shall be the children of God."[621]

Luke 6:35 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

"Because," says He, "He is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil."[629]

Luke 6:35 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Modesty

it; and remedies will be more effective on their first application than when outworn. No doubt the Lord is "kind" to "the unthankful,"[117]

Luke 6:35 - NIV, NAB - in Hippolytus Refutation of All Heresies Book V

This, he asserts, is that which has been written: "I said, Ye are gods, and all children of the highest; "[64]

Luke 6:36 - NIV, NAB - in 1 Clement

For thus He spoke: "Be ye merciful, that ye may obtain mercy; forgive, that it may be forgiven to you ; as ye do, so shall it be done unto you; as ye judge, so shall ye be judged; as ye are kind, so shall kindness be shown to you; with what measure ye mete, with the same it shall be measured to you."[55]

Luke 6:36 - NIV, NAB - in Epistle of Polycarp to the Philippians

be merciful, that ye may obtain mercy;[18]

Luke 6:36 - NIV, NAB - in First Apology of Justin

But seek ye the kingdom of heaven, and all these things shall be added unto you. For where his treasure is, there also is the mind of a man."[25]

Luke 6:36 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria Stromata Book II

For the law calls assimilation following; and such a following to the utmost of its power assimilates. "Be," says the Lord, "merciful and pitiful, as your heavenly Father is pitiful."[226]

Luke 6:36 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

Compassion also does He teach: "Be ye merciful," says He, "as your Father also that had mercy upon you."[635]

Luke 6:36 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Modesty

too to be `pitiful-hearted'[21]

Luke 6:36 - NIV, NAB - in Origen de Principiis Book IV

the image of God; and in him are manifestly to be discovered traces of the divine image, not by any appearance of the bodily frame, which is corruptible, but by mental wisdom, by justice, moderation, virtue, wisdom, discipline; in fine, by the whole band of virtues, which are innate in the essence of God, and which may enter into man by diligence and imitation of God; as the Lord also intimates in the Gospel, when He says, "Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful; "[66]

Luke 6:36 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Epistle LI

and the Lord in His Gospel says, "Be ye merciful, as your Father also had mercy upon you; "[24]

Luke 6:36 - NIV, NAB - in Recognitions of Clement V

"Wherefore awake, and take to yourselves our Lord and God, even that Lord who is Lord both of heaven and earth, and conform yourselves to His image and likeness, as the true Prophet Himself teaches, saying, `Be ye merciful, as also your heavenly Father is merciful, who makes His sun to rise upon the good and the evil, and rains upon the just and the unjust.'[9]

Luke 6:36 - NIV, NAB - in 1 Clement

For thus He spoke: "Be ye merciful, that ye may obtain mercy; forgive, that it may be forgiven to you; as ye do, so shall it be done unto you; as ye judge, so shall ye be judged; as ye are kind, so shall kindness be shown to you; with what measure ye mete, with the same it shall be measured to you."[64]

Luke 6:37 - NIV, NAB - in Epistle of Polycarp to the Philippians

forgive, and it shall be forgiven unto you;[17]

Luke 6:37 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria Who is the Rich Man that Shall Be Saved?

"Judge not, then, that ye be not judged. With what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again;[59]

Luke 6:37 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

wever, it be now some other being which teaches mercy, on the ground of his own mercifulness, how happens it that he has been wanting in mercy to me for so vast an age? "Judge not, and ye shall not be judged; condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned; forgive, and ye shall be forgiven; give, and it shall be given unto you: good measure, pressed down, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye measure withal, it shall be measured to you again."[639]

Luke 6:37 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Prayer

For the fact withal, that the same servant, after liberated by his lord, does not equally spare his own debtor; and, being on that account impeached before his lord, is made over to the tormentor to pay the uttermost farthing-that is, every guilt, however small: corresponds with our profession that "we also remit to our debtors; "indeed elsewhere, too, in conformity with this Form of Prayer, He saith, "Remit, and it shall be remitted you."[54]

Luke 6:37 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Of Patience

patience to me, and I will reward patience. For when He says, "Judge not, lest ye be judged,"[109]

Luke 6:37 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Of Patience

unless he first begin by lopping off chagrin, hardheartedness, and bitterness, which are in fact the poisonous outgrowths of impatience? How will you "remit, and remission shall be granted" you[124]

Luke 6:37 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Modesty

`not judging, that we be not judged.'[24]

Luke 6:37 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Modesty

`Remit, and remission shall be made to thee.'"[26]

Luke 6:37 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Modesty

Besides, the Lord Himself demonstrates the manner in which He threatens such as judge: "For with what judgment ye judge, judgment shall be given on you."[40]

Luke 6:37 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Treatise XII Three Books of Testimonies Against the Jews

In the Gospel according to Luke: "Judge not, that ye be not judged: condemn not, that ye be not condemned."[532]

Luke 6:37 - NIV, NAB - in Constitutions of the Holy Apostles Book II

Now the way of peace is our Saviour Jesus Christ, who has taught us, saying: "Forgive, and ye shall be forgiven. Give, and it shall be given to you; "[118]

Luke 6:37 - NIV, NAB - in Constitutions of the Holy Apostles Book II

For to yon this is not entrusted; for, on the contrary, it is said to those who are not of the dignity of magistrates or ministers: "Judge not, and ye shall not be judged."[178]

Luke 6:37 - NIV, NAB - in Constitutions of the Holy Apostles Book II

For the Lord says: "With what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and as you condemn, you shall be condemned."[202]

Luke 6:38 - NIV, NAB - in Epistle of Polycarp to the Philippians

with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again;[19]

Luke 6:38 - NIV, NAB - in Clementine Homily XVIII

and neither themselves entered nor allowed those who wished to enter, on this account, and justly, inasmuch as they hid the ways from those who wished, were in like manner the secrets hidden from them, in order that they themselves might experience what they had done to others, and with what measure they had measured, an equal measure might be meted out to them.[22]

Luke 6:39 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

Let the Marcionites therefore make their choice: Will it not be just the same inconsistency to desert the prescription of their master, as to have Christ teaching in the interest of men or of the Creator? But "a blind man will lead a blind man into the ditch."[642]
