I desire to be present with you now, and to change my tone; for I stand in doubt of you.
All Commentaries on Galatians 4:20 Go To Galatians 4
John Chrysostom
AD 407
Observe his warmth, his inability to refrain himself, and to conceal these his feelings; such is the nature of love; nor is he satisfied with words, but desires to be present with them, and so, as he says, to change his voice, that is, to change to lamentation, to shed tears, to turn every thing into mourning. For he could not by letter show his tears or cries of grief, and therefore he ardently desires to be present with them.
