John Chrysostom
Catena Aurea · Matthäusevangelium 1
Mt 1, 1English original
The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the Son of Abraham.
(Hom. in Matt. Hom. ii.) Or he therefore entitles it, The book of the generation, because this is the sum of the whole dispensation, the root of all its blessings; viz. that God became man; for this once effected, all other things followed of course.
