Job 7:1

Early Christian Commentary - (A.D. 100 - A.D. 325)

Anf-01 ix.iv.xii Pg 12
Mal. iii. 1.

who should prepare His way, that is, that he should bear witness of that Light in the spirit and power of Elias.3437

Anf-02 ii.iii.v Pg 8.1


Anf-03 iv.ix.ix Pg 55
Mal. iii. 1: comp. Matt. xi. 10; Mark i. 2; Luke vii. 27.

Nor is it a novel practice to the Holy Spirit to call those “angels” whom God has appointed as ministers of His power. For the same John is called not merely an “angel” of Christ, but withal a “lamp” shining before Christ: for David predicts, “I have prepared the lamp for my Christ;”1299

1299

Luke vii. 26, 27, and Mal. iii. 1–; 3.

adduced the prophecy in the superior sense of the alternative mentioned by the perplexed John, in order that, by affirming that His own precursor was already come in the person of John, He might quench the doubt4172

4172 Scrupulum.

which lurked in his question: “Art thou He that should come, or look we for another?”  Now that the forerunner had fulfilled his mission, and the way of the Lord was prepared, He ought now to be acknowledged as that (Christ) for whom the forerunner had made ready the way. That forerunner was indeed “greater than all of women born;”4173

confession made in a martyr’s cause, who “prevails with God”—which is what “Israel” means?5033

5033


Anf-03 v.x.vii Pg 5
Isa. xliv. 5.

O good mother! I myself also wish to be put among the number of her sons, that I may be slain by her; I wish to be slain, that I may become a son. But does she merely murder her sons, or also torture them? For I hear God also, in another passage, say, “I will burn them as gold is burned, and will try them as silver is tried.”8260

8260


Anf-03 v.iv.vi.xi Pg 8
Ps. lxxxvi. 15; cxii. 4; cxlv. 8; Jonah iv. 2.

In Jonah you find the signal act of His mercy, which He showed to the praying Ninevites.5685

Anf-03 vi.iv.xxvii Pg 4
[The author seems to have in mind (Hos. xiv. 2) “the calves of our lips.”]



Anf-03 v.iv.v.x Pg 10
Mic. vii. 18, 19.

Now, if nothing of this sort had been predicted of Christ, I should find in the Creator examples of such a benignity as would hold out to me the promise of similar affections also in the Son of whom He is the Father. I see how the Ninevites obtained forgiveness of their sins from the Creator3769

3769


Anf-01 ix.vii.xvi Pg 4
Ezek. xxxvii. 1, etc.

And again he says, “Thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will set your graves open, and cause you to come out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel; and ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall open your sepulchres, that I may bring my people again out of the sepulchres: and I will put my Spirit into you, and ye shall live; and I will place you in your land, and ye shall know that I am the Lord. I have said, and I will do, saith the Lord.”4578

who have had no sense of evil. But who are they that are saved now, and receive life eternal? Is it not those who love God, and who believe His promises, and who “in malice have become as little children?”4207

4207


Anf-01 vi.ii.iv Pg 3
The Latin reads, “Daniel” instead of “Enoch;” comp. Dan. ix. 24–27.

says, “For for this end the Lord has cut short the times and the days, that His Beloved may hasten; and He will come to the inheritance.” And the prophet also speaks thus: “Ten kingdoms shall reign upon the earth, and a little king shall rise up after them, who shall subdue under one three of the kings.”1470

1470


Anf-01 vi.ii.xvi Pg 8
Dan. ix. 24–27; Hag. ii. 10.

I find, therefore, that a temple does exist. Learn, then, how it shall be built in the name of the Lord. Before we believed in God, the habitation of our heart was corrupt and weak, as being indeed like a temple made with hands. For it was full of idolatry, and was a habitation of demons, through our doing such things as were opposed to [the will of] God. But it shall be built, observe ye, in the name of the Lord, in order that the temple of the Lord may be built in glory. How? Learn [as follows]. Having received the forgiveness of sins, and placed our trust in the name of the Lord, we have become new creatures, formed again from the beginning. Wherefore in our habitation God truly dwells in us. How? His word of faith; His calling1679

1679 Cod. Sin. reads, “the calling.”

of promise; the wisdom of the statutes; the commands of the doctrine; He himself prophesying in us; He himself dwelling in us; opening to us who were enslaved by death the doors of the temple, that is, the mouth; and by giving us repentance introduced us into the incorruptible temple.1680

1680 Cod. Sin. gives the clauses of this sentence separately, each occupying a line.

He then, who wishes to be saved, looks not to man,1681

1681 That is, the man who is engaged in preaching the Gospel.

but to Him who dwelleth in him, and speaketh in him, amazed at never having either heard him utter such words with his mouth, nor himself having ever desired to hear them.1682

1682 Such is the punctuation adopted by Hefele, Dressel, and Hilgenfeld.

This is the spiritual temple built for the Lord.

of “the Holy One” of God, and how that God’s name of “Jesus” was in the son of Nun.3666

3666 Compare what was said above in book iii., chap. xvi. p. 335.

These facts he had also received3667

Isa. lvii. 1.

Isa. lvii. 1.


Anf-01 ix.vi.xxxv Pg 14
Isa. lvii. 1.

These things were acted beforehand in Abel, were also previously declared by the prophets, but were accomplished in the Lord’s person; and the same [is still true] with regard to us, the body following the example of the Head.


Anf-01 viii.iv.xvi Pg 5
Isa. lvii. 1–4.



Anf-03 v.iv.iv.xxii Pg 11
Isa. lvii. 1.

Who is this but Christ? “Come, say they, let us take away the righteous, because He is not for our turn, (and He is clean contrary to our doings).”3409

3409


Anf-03 v.iv.v.xxviii Pg 7
Isa. lvii. 1.

“But I will show you whom ye shall fear: fear Him who, after He hath killed, hath power to cast into hell” (meaning, of course, the Creator); “yea, I say unto you, fear Him.”4625

4625


Anf-03 v.x.viii Pg 4
Isa. lvii. 1.

Here, too, you have both an announcement of martyrdoms, and of the recompense they bring. From the beginning, indeed, righteousness suffers violence.  Forthwith, as soon as God has begun to be worshipped, religion has got ill-will for her portion. He who had pleased God is slain, and that by his brother.  Beginning with kindred blood, in order that it might the more easily go in quest of that of strangers, ungodliness made the object of its pursuit, finally, that not only of righteous persons, but even of prophets also. David is persecuted; Elias put to flight; Jeremias stoned; Esaias cut asunder; Zacharias butchered between the altar and the temple, imparting to the hard stones lasting marks of his blood.8266

Isa. lvii. i.

When does this more frequently happen than in the persecution of His saints? This, indeed, is no ordinary matter,4291

no common casualty of the law of nature; but it is that illustrious devotion, that fighting for the faith, wherein whosoever loses his life for God saves it, so that you may here again recognize the Judge who recompenses the evil gain of life with its destruction, and the good loss thereof with its salvation. It is, however, a jealous God whom He here presents to me; one who returns evil for evil.  “For whosoever,” says He, “shall be ashamed of me, of him will I also be ashamed.”4292

4292


Anf-03 iv.ix.x Pg 54
Isa. lvii. 2 (in LXX.).

For neither was He buried except He were dead, nor was His sepulture removed from the midst except through His resurrection. Finally, he subjoins: “Therefore He shall have many for an heritage, and of many shall He divide spoils:”1357

1357


Anf-03 v.iv.v.xliii Pg 8
