Χρυσοστόμου. Ελ̓ͅb οἷον αὐτῷ τὸν στέφανον ἔπλεξε, τοσαύ- τὴν φιλοξενίαν μαρτυρήσας, καὶ ὁλόκληρον τὴν ἐκκλησίαν εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν εἰσαγαγὼν τὴν ἐκείνου; τὸν γὰρ ξένον ἐνταῦθα τὸν ξενοδόχον φησίν. ὅταν δὲ ἀκούσῃς ὅτι Παύλου ξενοδόχος ἦν, μὴ τῆς φιλοτομίας αὐτὸν θαύμαζε μόνον, ἀλλὰ καὶ τῆς κατὰ τὸν βίον ἀκριβείας· εἰ μὴ γὰρ ἦν ἄξιος τῆς ἀρετῆς τῆς ἐκείνου, οὐδ’ ἃν ἐκεῖνος ἐκεῖ κατηχήθη. ὁ γὰρ πολλὰ τῶν ἐπιταγμάτων τοῦ Χριστοῦ σπουδάζων ὑπερβαίνειν, οὐκ ἃν τοῦτον παρέβη τὸν νόμον, τὸν κελεύοντα περιεργάζεσθαι τοὺς ὑποδεχομένους, καὶ παρὰ τοῖς ἀξίοις κατάγεσθαι.
