There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differs from another star in glory.
All Commentaries on 1 Corinthians 15:41 Go To 1 Corinthians 15
Jerome
AD 420
The members of the one church are different. Just as the sun has its own brilliance, and the moon also tempers the darkness of the night. And the five other stars called the wandering stars traverse the sky, differing both in their courses and in their brilliance. There are other countless stars that we see shining in the firmament. The brilliance of each of these is different, and yet each and every star is perfect, according to its own standard, to the degree that, in comparison with a greater star, it lacks perfection… So the eye cannot say to the hand: “I do not need your help.”
