Leave there your gift before the altar, and go your way; first be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.
All Commentaries on Matthew 5:24 Go To Matthew 5
Jerome
AD 420
He did not say, “If you have anything against your brother” but “If your brother has anything against you,” so that a greater need for reconciliation is imposed on you. As long as we are unable to make peace with our brother, I do not know whether we may offer our gifts to God. .
