John Chrysostom
Catena Aurea · Matthäusevangelium 6
Mt 6, Verses 28–30English original
And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall He not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
He forbids not labour but carefulness, both here and above when He spoke of sowing.
