Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew

Saint John Chrysostom · c. 390 AD

Ante-Nicene Fathers (Roberts–Donaldson), Roberts, Donaldson, and Coxe (eds.), Ante-Nicene Fathers, Buffalo: Christian Literature Publishing, 1885–1887; digitized by CCEL.

Archbishop of Constantinople; the most beloved homilist of the patristic era, surnamed "Golden-mouthed" (Chrysostom). One of the Three Holy Hierarchs of the Orthodox Church. His Divine Liturgy is the Eucharistic celebration of the Orthodox Church on most days of the year. His enormous homiletical corpus — homilies on Matthew, John, Acts, Romans, the rest of Paul, and Hebrews, plus the Homilies on the Statues delivered during the riots of Antioch in 387, the treatise On the Priesthood, ascetic and pastoral letters — has shaped Orthodox preaching, biblical interpretation, and pastoral theology more than any other single author.
