St. John Chrysostom never spoke extemporaneously, but that as he walked to the church he thought over and embellished what he had prepared for this occasion, and the result was this finished address, which he delivered without notes. Presumably it was taken down in shorthand, as were most of his sermons. It is thought by some scholars, on the other hand, that this sermon as we have it is a compilation made by Eusebius.
