“... But wisdom is vindicated by all her children.” (Luke 7:35.)
Saint Ambrose of Milan offers the following insight on this verse from today’s Gospel proclamation:
“The Lord made a truly necessary addition to these words when he said, “And wisdom is justified by her children.” If you ask who those children are, read what is written, “The sons of wisdom are the church of the just.”” (Letter 36)
