Church Fathers on Colossians 2:4

“This I say, that no one may delude you with persuasiveness of speech.” Do you see that he says, I have therefore said this, that you may not seek it from men. “Delude you,” he says, “with persuasiveness of speech.” For what if any does speak, and speak persuasively?
