Œuvres Clément de Rome (35-99) Epistula ad Corinthios

Traduction Masquer
The First Epistle of Clement to the Corinthians

Chapter LIV.--He Who is Full of Love Will Incur Every Loss, that Peace May Be Restored to the Church.

Who then among you is noble-minded? who compassionate? who full of love? Let him declare, "If on my account sedition and disagreement and schisms have arisen, I will depart, I will go away whithersoever ye desire, and I will do whatever the majority 1 commands; only let the flock of Christ live on terms of peace with the presbyters set over it." He that acts thus shall procure to himself great glory in the Lord; 2 and every place will welcome 3 him. For "the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof." 4 These things they who live a godly life that is never to be repented of, both have done and always will do.


  1. Literally, "the multitude." ↩

  2. I. en Christo (in Christ). ↩

  3. Or, "receive." ↩

  4. Ps. xxiv. 1; 1 Cor. x. 26, 28. ↩

  1. Literally, "the multitude." [Clement here puts words into the mouth of the Corinthian presbyters. It has been strangely quoted to strengthen a conjecture that he had humbly preferred Linus and Cletus when first called to preside.] ↩

  2. Or, "receive." ↩

  3. Ps. xxiv. 1; 1 Cor. x. 26, 28.  ↩
