    8. That anger must be overcome, lest it constrain us to sin.

    In Solomon in the Proverbs: “Better is a patient man than a strong man; for he who restrains his anger is better than he who taketh a city.”4227

    4227 Prov. xvi. 32.

    Also in the same place:  “The imprudent man declareth his anger on the same day, but the crafty man hideth away his dishonour.”4228

    4228 Prov. xii. 16.

    Of this same thing to the Ephesians: “Be ye angry, and sin not. Let not the sun set upon your wrath.”4229

    4229 Eph. iv. 16.

    Also in the Gospel according to Matthew: “Ye have heard that it was said by the ancients, Thou shalt not kill; and whoever shall kill shall be guilty of the judgment. But I say unto you, That every one who is angry with his brother without cause shall be guilty of the judgment.”4230

    4230 Matt. v. 21, 22.
