Paterius

Deuteronômio 32:1

By heavens he means the order of the clergy and by earth the people subject to them. For "Listen, O heavens, and I shall speak" was addressed not to insensible but to rational creation. — EXPOSITION OF THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT, DEUTERONOMY 19

Deuteronômio 32:11

The Lord protects us, his little ones. He nourishes us and restores us—not in a heavy and burdensome way but with gentle and kind protection. He shows his mercies toward us, as if extending his wings over us as a bird does. — EXPOSITION OF THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT, DEUTERONOMY 20

Deuteronômio 32:13

Nothing like this is ever found in Scripture in the literal sense, even if one reviews the whole body of the Old Testament. People never sucked honey or oil from a rock. But since, according to Paul, the rock was Christ, they did suck honey from a rock, because they beheld the deeds and miracles of that same Redeemer of ours. They did suck oil from a solid rock, because after his resurrection they deserved to be anointed with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Thus the Lord gave them honey in the solid rock when he, still subject to death, showed his disciples the sweetness of his miracles. And the solid rock poured forth oil, because after his resurrection, when he became impassible, he founded the house of holy anointing by the outpouring of the Spirit. The prophet says of this oil, "The yoke will fall from before the oil." We were held under the yoke of demonic domination, but we have been anointed with the oil of the Holy Spirit. And because the grace of liberty has anointed us, the yoke of demonic domination has fallen. — EXPOSITION OF THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT, DEUTERONOMY 21

Deuteronômio 32:42

The sword of God consumes flesh, because at the last judgment his sentence slays those who think carnally. — EXPOSITION OF THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT, DEUTERONOMY 25
