And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
All Commentaries on Luke 12:4 Go To Luke 12
John Chrysostom
AD 407
Observe how our Lord makes His disciples superior to all, by exhorting them to despise that very death which is terrible to all. At the same time also he brings them proofs of the immortality of the soul: adding, I will forewarn you whom you shall fear: fear him, which after he has killed has power to cast into hell.
