Leo Hogenboom: Pastoor

Quotes 

• Pastoor (The Village Priest) : Corruption that infects us all. Of such, Peter, the rock upon whom the Church is built, warns: "Them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise government." The kingdom of the Jews fell through Jezebel and her cursed daughter. More the shame that these are women! They should set an example of humility and obedience, and teach their daughters chastity. Let them repent, lest they be cast into hellfire at the day of judgment!

• Pastoor (The Village Priest) : And Our Lord said unto them: "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her." And just as her accusers left, convicted by their own conscience, so we must think of our own transgressions before condemning others. Let us also remember that salvation came into the world through a woman. And that no one seeks her protection or help in vain. Nor should we forget the lesson read on the feast day of a holy woman: "She openeth her mouth with wisdom in her tongue is the law of kindness."
