From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus.

AD 407
From henceforth let no man trouble me.
This he says not as though he were wearied or overpowered; he who chose to do and suffer all for his disciples' sake; he who said, Be instant in season, out of season; 2 Timothy 4:2 he who said, If perhaps God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth, and they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil; 2 Timothy 2:25-26 how shall he now become relaxed and fall back? Wherefore does he say this? It is to gird up their slothful mind, and to impress them with deeper fear, and to ratify the laws enacted by himself, and to restrain their perpetual fluctuations.
