Context: belief among some Matt 1:19 should be interpreted that “. . . Joseph, reputing himself a sinner and unworthy, did not think it fitting to live familiarly with one whose surpassing dignity inspired him with awe” (p. 200):
But who are
the Fathers to whom [St. Bernard] alludes? There are an Origen, a
Jerome, a Basil, a Remigius, author of a fragmentary work which has been
attributed to St. Chrysostom, a Theophylact, and others. (Edward Healy Thompson, The Life and
Glories of St. Joseph [London: Burns and Oates, 1888; repr., Rockford Ill.:
