In 377, Saint Epiphanius of Salamis wrote, "How will holy Mary not possess the kingdom of heaven with her flesh, since she was not unchaste, nor dissolute, nor did she ever commit adultery, and since she never did anything wrong as far as fleshly actions are concerned, but remained stainless?"
In 377, Saint Epiphanius eSalami wabhala, "Indlela ngeke uMariya ongcwele ifa lombuso wezulu ngenyama yakhe, kusukela wayengeyena unchaste, noma antule, futhi akazange yena nanini bophezela phinga, futhi kusukela akakaze wenza lutho olubi kuze kufike izenzo ongokwenyama bakhathazekile, kodwa wahlala engagqwali?"
