Naked, and you clothed me: I was sick, and you visited me: I was in prison, and you came unto me.
All Commentaries on Matthew 25:36 Go To Matthew 25
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
And you visited me. How easy are the things our Saviour requires at our hands! He will not say at the day of judgment: "I was in prison, and you delivered me; I was sick, and you healed me; but only this, you visited me, you came to me. "(St. Chrysostom, hom. lxxx.)
This seems particularly addressed to Christians engaged in the cares of the world, whose salvation principally depends on the practice of works of mercy.
