Church Fathers on Matthew 25:13

Hom. lxxviii, In the foregoing parable the Lord set forth the punishment of the man who beat, and was drunk, and wasted his Lord’s goods; in this He declares his punishment who profits not, and does not prepare for himself abundantly the things of which he has need; for the foolish virgins had oil, but not enough.

Chrysostom · 4th century

'Then,' because all this discourse is concerning the great day of the Lord, concerning which He had been speaking before.

Hilary of Poitiers · 4th century

By 'the kingdom of heaven' is meant the present Church, as in that, 'The Son of Man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend.' [Matt 13:41]

Gregory the Great · 6th century · Hom. in Ev., xii, 1
