Romans 15:4

For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.
Read Chapter 15

Clement Of Alexandria

AD 215
"For what things the Scripture speaks were written for our instruction, that we, through patience and the consolation of the Scriptures, might have the hope of consolation."

Fabian of Rome

AD 250
And this, too, we urge you all to do, so that no doubt or questioning of these things may arise in later times; "for whatsoever things were written, were written for our learning."

John Chrysostom

AD 407
These things were written so that we might not fall away, for we have many battles to fight, both inward and outward. But being comforted by the Scriptures we can exhibit patience, so that by living in patience we might dwell in hope. For these things produce one another—hope brings forth patience, and patience, hope.

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation - 2 Peter 1:20
