Salmos 34
Jerome · Comentário Patrístico (catena)
Salmos 34:8
Just as the body dies unless it is given proper food, even so does the soul if it is not given spiritual food. Why am I making such a point of this? Because there are some who insist on saying, I have no need for sacred Scripture; the fear of God is enough for me. That is, therefore, precisely why we affirm that just as there are foods for the body, so there are, likewise, foods for the soul, namely, the sacred Scripture. — HOMILY ON PSALM 127[128]
Salmos 34:19
One who does not suffer trial, therefore, is not just. — BRIEF COMMENTARY ON PSALM 34
