Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?
All Commentaries on Proverbs 20:9 Go To Proverbs 20
Gregory of Nyssa
AD 394
Whose soul, then, is pure from stain? How has anyone not been struck by vanity or been trodden down by the foot of pride? Whose hand has never been touched by sin? Whose feet have never run toward evil? Who has not been polluted by a roving eye or been defiled by an undisciplined ear? Whose taste has never been preoccupied by its enjoyment, whose heart has remained unmoved by vain emotions? On the Lord’s Prayer
