Receive the afflictions that fall upon thee with an even mind, and the chances of life without over-much sorrow, knowing that a reward shall be given to thee by God, as was given to Job and to Lazarus.[76]

Luke 16:8 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Epistle LXXII

But if Christ's disciples are unwilling to learn from Christ what veneration and honour is due to the name of the Father, still let them learn from earthly and secular examples, and know that Christ has declared, not without the strongest rebuke, "The children of this world are wiser in their generation than the children of light."[28]

Luke 16:8 - NIV, NAB - in A Homily on Guria and Shamuna

an, through possessing a competency, both not himself to be in straits about money, and also to give assistance to those to whom it is requisite so to do! For if no one had anything, what room would be left among men for giving? And how can this dogma fail to be found plainly opposed to and conflicting with many other excellent teachings of the Lord? "Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness, that when ye fail, they may receive you into the everlasting habitations."[15]

Luke 16:9 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria Who is the Rich Man that Shall Be Saved?

And again, "Make to you friends of the mammon of unrighteousness, that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations; "[51]

Luke 16:9 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Of Patience

How shall we fashion to us friends from mammon,[79]

Luke 16:9 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian De Fuga in Persecutione

Otherwise, if you think that we should give indiscriminately to all who ask, that seems to me to mean that you would give, I say not wine to him who has a fever, but even poison or a sword to him who longs for death. But how we are to understand," Make to yourselves friends of mammon,"[57]

Luke 16:9 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Treatise II On the Dress of Virgins

by the prayers of many[29]

Luke 16:9 - NIV, NAB - in Methodius From the Discourse on the Resurrection

As also the Lord showed, when He said: "Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations."[91]

Luke 16:10 - NIV, NAB - in Hippolytus Refutation of All Heresies Book X

But if thou art desirous of also becoming a god, obey Him that has created thee, and resist not now, in order that, being found faithful in that which is small, you may be enabled to have entrusted to you also that which is great.[50]

Luke 16:10 - NIV, NAB - in 2 Clement

Luke 16:10 - NIV, NAB - in 2 Clement

Luke 16:11 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Treatise VIII On Works and Alms

He also, in another place, calls laborious and fruitful men faithful; but He denies faith to unfruitful and barren ones, saying, "If ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to you that which is true? And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own? "[28]

Luke 16:12 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

"In the unrighteous mammon," that is to say, in unrighteous riches, not in the Creator; for even Marcion allows Him to be righteous: "And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who will give to you that which is mine? "[1304]

Luke 16:13 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria Stromata Book III

Quae cum ita se habeant, vitii erat depulsio atque expurgatio, in medium apostolorum circumactio uxoris, cujus dicebatur laborare zelotypia: et continentia a voluptatibus, quae magno studio parari solent, docebat illud, "abuti carne," hoc est, exercere carnem. Neque enim, ut existimo, volebant, convenienter Domini praecepto, "duobus dominis servire,"[18]

Luke 16:13 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria Stromata Book VII

How, then, can what relates to meat, and drink, and amorous pleasure, be agreeable to such an one? since he views with suspicion even a word that produces pleasure, and a pleasant movement and act of the mind. "For no one can serve two masters, God and Mammon,"[106]

this sentence against them, "Ye cannot serve God and mammon."[1297]

Now the Lord declares, "No servant can serve two masters."[44]

Luke 16:13 - NIV, NAB - in 2 Clement

Now the Lord declares, "No servant can serve two masters."[33]

Luke 16:14 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Treatise VIII On Works and Alms

For when in the Gospel the Lord was discoursing concerning almsgiving, and faithfully and wholesomely warned us to make to ourselves friends of our earthly lucre by provident good works, who might afterwards receive us into eternal dwellings, the Scripture added after this, and said, "But the Pharisees heard all these things, who were very covetous, and they derided Him."[37]

"for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God."[86]

Luke 16:15 - NIV, NAB - in Constitutions of the Holy Apostles Book VII

and "that which is of high esteem with man is abomination with God."[72]

Luke 16:16 - NIV, NAB - in Irenaeus Against Heresies Book IV

Luke 16:16 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria Stromata Book V

This, then, is the type of "the law and the prophets which were until John; "[106]

Luke 16:16 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian An Answer to the Jews

In short, if this is not so, let the Jews exhibit, subsequently to Christ, any volumes of prophets, visible miracles wrought by any angels, (such as those) which in bygone days the patriarchs saw until the advent of Christ, who is now come; since which event "sealed is vision and prophecy," that is, confirmed. And justly does the evangelist[115]

And thus, the former gifts of grace being withdrawn, "the law and the prophets were until John,"[311]

Luke 16:16 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

He continued his pupillage up to the time of John, and then proceeded forthwith to announce the kingdom of God, saying: "The law and the prophets were until John; since that time the kingdom of God is proclaimed."[1313]

Luke 16:16 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book V

that so it might prove true that "the law and the prophets were until John."[357]

according to the apostle; and "the law and the prophets (were) until John,"[54]

Luke 16:16 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Fasting

and that these are now the only legitimate days for Christian fasts, the legal and prophetical antiquities having been abolished: for wherever it suits their wishes, they recognise what is the meaning of" the Law and the prophets until John."[6]

Luke 16:16 - NIV, NAB - in Archelaus Acts of the Disputation with the Heresiarch Manes

fruit any more, they are cut down; and just as, when the members of the body suffer mortification, they are amputated, for the poison of the mortification diffuses itself from these members through the whole body, and unless some remedy be found for the disease by the skill of the physician, the whole body will be vitiated; so, too, if ye receive the law without understanding its origin, ye will ruin your souls, and lose your salvation. For "the law and the prophets were until John; "[113]

Luke 16:16 - NIV, NAB - in Archelaus Acts of the Disputation with the Heresiarch Manes

And many other things did he introduce, with the view of detracting from the honour of the law, on the ground that the law itself is sin; by which statements the simpler people were somewhat influenced, as he continued to bring them forward; and in accordance with all this, he also made use of the affirmation, that "the law and the prophets were until John."[438]

Luke 16:16 - NIV, NAB - in Origen Commentary on John Book VI

If the law and the prophets were until John,[52]

Luke 16:16 - NIV, NAB - in Origen Commentary on Matthew Book X

In reference to these things, it seems to me, that as the law and the prophets were until John,[153]

Luke 16:16 - NIV, NAB - in Origen Commentary on Matthew Book XI

Perhaps they spoke this saying, in reference to the word of Jesus, that because of the beheading of John both the law and the prophets who were until John had ceased.[5]

Luke 16:17 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

"More easily, therefore, may heaven and earth pass away-as also the law and the prophets-than that one tittle of the Lord's words should fail."[1316]

Luke 16:18 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Marcion Book IV

[in their separate state] as the body had to which they were adapted, and that they remember the deeds which they did in this state of existence, and from which they have now ceased,-in that narrative which is recorded respecting the rich man and that Lazarus who found repose in the bosom of Abraham. In this account He states[302]

Luke 16:19 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Idolatry

tormented in hell, and the poor man resting in Abraham's bosom.[1355]

Luke 16:19 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Fasting

Nay, even in Hades the admonition has not ceased to speak; where we find in the person of the rich feaster, convivialities tortured; in that of the pauper, fasts refreshed; having-(as convivialities and fasts alike had)-as preceptors "Moses and the prophets."[115]

Luke 16:19 - NIV, NAB - in Five Books in Reply to Marcion

By Lazarus[235]

Luke 16:26 - NIV, NAB - in Passion of the Holy Martyrs Perpetua and Felicitas

who died miserably with disease-his face being so eaten out with cancer, that his death caused repugnance to all men. For him I had made my prayer, and between him and me there was a large interval,[16]

Luke 16:31 - NIV, NAB - in Irenaeus Against Heresies Book IV
