Revelation 16:15

Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
Read Chapter 16

Bede

AD 735
I come: Another version has more suitably, "At the great day of God Almighty: behold He cometh as a thief."

Bede

AD 735
Blessed: Blessed are they whose sins are covered, who hide the baseness of a reprehensible life before the eyes of the just at the judgment, by the covering of subsequent good works. In the Gospel also, the Lord, under the example of the thief to be guarded against, commands His servants to watch. <a

Cyprian of Carthage

AD 258
Also in the same place: "Blessed shall they be who shall watch, and shall keep their garments, lest they walk naked, and they see their shame."
