Chapter 3

3.6PL 51:819

De stellæ signo. Promissio credita et visa. 7. Balaam propheta ex gentibus, Orietur, inquit, stella ex Jacob, et exsurget homo ex Israel, et confringet omnia regna terræ (Num. XXIV, 17). Et Isaias propheta: Gentium populus, ait, sedens in tenebris vidit lucem magnam (Isa. VII, 2). Et David dixit: Reges Tharsis et insulæ munera offerent, reges Arabum et Saba dona adducent (Ps. LXXI, 10). Item Isaias: Omnes a Saba venient, ferentes aurum, thus et lapidem pretiosum, salutare Domini bene nuntiabunt (Isa. LX, 6). Firmat haec Matthæus evangelista, dicens: Ecce stella quam viderant Magi in Oriente, præibat eos, donec venit et stetit supra locum ubi erat puer. Videntes autem stellam, gavisi sunt gaudio magno. Ingressi itaque invenerunt puerum et matrem ejus. Apertisque thesauris obtulerunt ei munera: aurum, ut Regi; thus, ut Sacerdoti; et myrrham, ut morituro pro nobis (Matth. II, 9, etc.). Testatur et Paulus: Deus, inquit, qui dixit de tenebris lumen clarescere, claruit in cordibus nostris: ad illuminationem gloriæ scientiæ ejus in faciem Christi Jesu (II Cor. IV, 6); fateturque Sibylla, dicens: Exuret terras ignis, pontumque polumque. Dicit et Maro quædam congrua (Æneid. ii, v. 694, 700): Stella facem ducens multa cum luce cucurrit: Muneribus cumulant, et sanctum sidus adorant.

Of the sign of the star. A promise believed and seen. Balaam, the prophet from the nations, says: “A star shall rise from Jacob, and a man shall rise up from Israel, and shall shatter all the kingdoms of the earth.” And the prophet Isaiah: “The people of the nations,” he says, “sitting in darkness, saw a great light.” And David said: “The kings of Tarshish and the islands shall offer gifts; the kings of the Arabs and of Sheba shall bring presents.” Again Isaiah: “All will come from Sheba, bringing gold, incense, and precious stone, proclaiming well the salvation of the Lord.” Matthew the evangelist confirms this, saying: “Behold, the star which the Magi had seen in the East went before them, until it came and stood over the place where the child was. Seeing the star, they rejoiced with great joy. Entering, they found the child and his mother. And opening their treasures they offered him gifts: gold, as to a King; incense, as to a Priest; and myrrh, as to one who would die for us.” Paul too testifies: “God,” he says, “who said that light should shine out of darkness, has shone in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of his glory in the face of Christ Jesus”; and the Sibyl acknowledges, saying: “fire will burn up the lands, and sea and sky.” Maro too says some fitting things: “A star leading a torch ran with much light”; “they heap it with gifts, and adore the holy star.”

Notes and citation

Summary: Balaam’s star, the light of the nations, and the gifts of kings in the Psalms and Isaiah are fulfilled in the star of the Magi and their gifts, with Paul, the Sibyl, and Virgil as further witnesses.

The meaning of the three gifts is added in the Gospel quotation by the author. Isa 9:2 is cited by Migne as Isa 7:2. The Virgil lines are Aeneid 2.694 and a line not found in this form in Virgil (perhaps a cento); “sanctum sidus adorant” resembles Aeneid 2.700.

3.7PL 51:819–821

De pace et salute Nativitatis ejus. Promissio credita et visa. 8. Per Isaiam prophetam: Datus est, ait, nobis filius (Isa. IX. 6). Et paulo post: Adducam pacem super principium ejus, pax et salus illi magna est, potestatis et pacis ejus non erit terminus (Ibid., 7). Firmat hæc Lucas evangelista, dicens: Continua facta est cum angelo multitudo exercitus cœlestis, laudantium et dicentium: Gloria in excelsis Deo, et in terra pax hominibus bonæ voluntatis (Luc. II. 13). Et ipse: Pacem meam, ait, do vobis, pacem meam relinquo vobis (Joan. XIV, 27). Testatur et Paulus apostolus, dicens: Ipse est enim pax nostra, qui fecit utraque unum (Ephes. II, 14).. Fatetur et Maro (Eclog. 4, v. 17): Pacaturoque reget patriis virtutibus orbem

Of the peace and salvation of his birth. A promise believed and seen. Through the prophet Isaiah: “A son,” he says, “has been given to us.” And a little later: “I will bring peace upon his rule; peace and salvation are great for him; of his power and peace there will be no end.” Luke the evangelist confirms this, saying: “And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising and saying: Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men of good will.” And he himself says: “My peace I give you, my peace I leave you.” The apostle Paul too testifies, saying: “For he is our peace, who has made both one.” And Maro acknowledges: “and he shall rule a world made peaceful by his father’s virtues.”

Notes and citation

Summary: Isaiah’s promise of the son whose peace has no end is fulfilled in the angels’ song at Christ’s birth and his gift of peace, with Paul and Virgil’s fourth Eclogue as witnesses.

Isa 9:7 is quoted in an Old Latin form. The Virgil line is Eclogue 4.17.

3.8PL 51:821

De fuga in Ægyptum. Promissio credita et visa. 9. Per Oseam prophetam: Ex Ægypto, ait vocavi Filium meum (Osee XI, 1). Hoc firmat evangelista Matthæus: Angelus Domini, ait, apparuit Joseph in somnis, dicens: Surgens accipe puerum et matrem ejus, et fuge in Ægyptum. Quæsiturus est enim Herodes puerum, ut eum perdat (Matth. II, 15) Ad hoc enim in Ægyptum Christus introductus est, ut, sicut apostolus Paulus dicit: Ubi abundavit delictum (Rom, v, 20), superabundaret gratia.

Of the flight into Egypt. A promise believed and seen. Through the prophet Hosea: “Out of Egypt,” he says, “I called my Son.” The evangelist Matthew confirms this: “An angel of the Lord,” he says, “appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying: Rise, take the child and his mother, and flee into Egypt. For Herod is about to seek the child to destroy him.” For Christ was brought into Egypt for this, that, as the apostle Paul says, where sin abounded, grace might abound all the more.

Notes and citation

Summary: Hosea’s “Out of Egypt I called my Son” is fulfilled in the flight into Egypt, where Christ brought grace to a land of sin.

3.9PL 51:821

De parvulis pro Christo occisi. Promissio impleta. 10. In Jeremia propheta: Vox, inquit, in Rama audita est, fletus et ululatus, Rachel plorans filios suos, et noluit consolari. quia non sunt (Jerem. XXXI, 15). Et per David, dicens: Innocentes et recti adhæserunt mihi (Ps. XXIV, 21). Item, alibi: Ex ore infantium et lactentium perfecisti laudem (Psal. VIII, 4). Firmat hæc evangelista Matthæus. Herodes vero, ait, ut vidit quia illusus est a magis, iratus est valde, et misit, et occidit omnes pueros qui erant in Bethlehem et in omnibus regionibus ejus, a bimatu et infra, secundum tempus quod exquisierat a magis (Matth. II, 18). Testatur et Joannes in Apocalypsi: Hi sunt, dictum est, qui venerunt ex magna tribulatione, et laverunt stolas suas, et candidas eas fecerunt in sanguine Agni (Apoc. VII, 14). Numerusque eorum ex omni tribu Israel ostensus est centum quadraginta quatuor millia signati (Ibid., 4), quos etiam nolente Jerusalem Christus suo numero sociavit; quia, sicut Paulus dicit: Quos prædestinavit, illos et vocavit (Rom. VIII, 30). Ad hæc Maro (Æneid. VI, v. 426): Infantumque animæ flentes in limine primo. Item (Eclog. -i, v. 23): Ipsa tibi blandos fundent cunabula flores.

Of the little ones killed for Christ. A promise fulfilled. In the prophet Jeremiah: “A voice,” he says, “was heard in Ramah, weeping and wailing, Rachel weeping for her sons, and she would not be comforted, because they are not.” And through David, saying: “The innocent and the upright have clung to me.” Again elsewhere: “Out of the mouth of infants and sucklings you have perfected praise.” The evangelist Matthew confirms this: “Herod,” he says, “when he saw that he had been deceived by the Magi, was very angry, and sent and killed all the boys in Bethlehem and in all its region, from two years old and under, according to the time he had ascertained from the Magi.” John too testifies in the Apocalypse: “These,” it is said, “are those who have come out of the great tribulation, and have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.” And their number from every tribe of Israel was shown as a hundred and forty-four thousand sealed, whom Christ joined to his number even from unwilling Jerusalem; because, as Paul says: “Those whom he predestined, he also called.” To this Maro adds: “and the souls of infants weeping on the threshold.” Again: “Your very cradle will pour out caressing flowers for you.”

Notes and citation

Summary: Jeremiah’s Rachel weeping and the Psalms’ innocents are fulfilled in Herod’s slaughter of the infants, numbered with the sealed of the Apocalypse, with lines of Virgil added.

The identification of the 144,000 sealed (Rev 7:4) with the Holy Innocents is the author’s. The Virgil lines are Aeneid 6.427 (Migne: 426) and Eclogue 4.23.

3.10PL 51:821

De puero Jesu, qui in templo seniores Judæorum ex I... propheta convicit. Promissio impleta. it. Isaias propheta ex persona Christi Domini: Spiritus Domini, ait, super me. Propter quod unxit me. bene evangelizare pauperibus misit me, curare contribulatos corde, prædicare captivis remissionem, et cæcis visum (Isai. LXI, 11). Firmat hæc Evangelium Lucæ, dicens: Venit Jesus in templum, et accepit librum Isaiæ (Luc. IV, 16). Qui cum legisset ea quæ supra posita sunt, ait illis: Amen dico vobis, quia hodie impleta est Scriptura ista in auribus vestris. Et mirabantur omnes qui erant in templo, dicentes: Quomodo hic legit, qui litteras non didicit (Joan. VII, 15)? Testatur apostolus Petrus. Non enim, ait, voluntate humana allata est umquam prophetia, sed Spiritu sancto acti locuti sunt homines Dei (II Petr. XI, 21). Dicit et Paulus: Superædificati super fundamentum apostolorum et prophetarum, ipso summo angulari lapide existente Christo Jesu (Ephes. II, 20).

Of the boy Jesus, who in the temple convicted the elders of the Jews from a prophet. A promise fulfilled. The prophet Isaiah, in the person of Christ the Lord: “The Spirit of the Lord,” he says, “is upon me, because he has anointed me; he has sent me to preach good news to the poor, to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim release to the captives, and sight to the blind.” The Gospel of Luke confirms this, saying: “Jesus came into the temple and took the book of Isaiah.” When he had read what is set down above, he said to them: “Truly I say to you, today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.” And all who were in the temple marveled, saying: “How does this man read, who has not learned letters?” The apostle Peter testifies: “For no prophecy was ever brought by human will, but men of God spoke moved by the Holy Spirit.” And Paul says: “Built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone.”

Notes and citation

Summary: Isaiah’s “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me” is fulfilled when Jesus reads it and declares it fulfilled, to the amazement of his hearers.

The title speaks of the boy Jesus in the temple, but the chapter treats the reading in the synagogue at Nazareth (Luke 4), which the author places “in the temple,” combined with John 7:15.

3.11PL 51:821

De Christo uncto per columbam, posteaquam eum Joannes in Jordane baptizavit. Promissio impleta. 12. Isaias propheta: Exaltabuntur, ait, deserta. Jordanis (Isa, XXVI, 44, sec. LXX). Et sequitur: Plebs mea videbit altitudinem Dei, et claritatem Domini. Dicit et David: Fluminis impetus lætificat civitatem Dei (Ps. xLv, 5). Item, ipse: Unxit te Deus, Deus tuus oleo lætitiæ præ participibus tuis (Ps. XLIV, 8). Firmat hæc Evangelium Matthei, dicens: Venit Jesus a Galilæa in Jordanem, ut baptizaretur a Joanne. Et prohibebat eum Joannes, dicens: Ego a te debeo baptizari, et tu venis ad me. Respondit ei Jesus: Sine modo, sic enim decet implere nos omnem justitiam. Tunc tinxit eum; et baptizato Jesu, statim ascendit de aqua, et aperti sunt ei cœli; et vidit Spiritum sanctum descendentem de cœlo sicut columbam, et manentem super eum. Et vox facta est de cœlo, dicens: Hic est Filius meus dilectus, in quo bene complacui (Matth. III, 13, etc.). Testatur in hoc Petrus apostolus, dicens: Et hanc vocem audivimus de cœlo delatam, cum essemus cum illo in sancto monte (II Petr. I, 18). Tertio enim hæc de cœlo sonuit vox, sicut norunt qui Evangelia intente legunt, vel audiunt. Per columbam vero unctionem intelligit, qui novit post diluvium ramum oleæ columbam ad arcam portasse (Gen. VIII. 11).

Of Christ anointed by the dove, after John baptized him in the Jordan. A promise fulfilled. The prophet Isaiah says: “The deserts of the Jordan shall be exalted.” And it continues: “My people shall see the height of God and the glory of the Lord.” And David says: “The rush of the river gladdens the city of God.” Again he says: “God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.” The Gospel of Matthew confirms this, saying: “Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John. And John forbade him, saying: I ought to be baptized by you, and you come to me? Jesus answered him: Let it be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he baptized him; and when Jesus had been baptized, he at once came up from the water, and the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Holy Spirit descending from heaven like a dove and remaining on him. And a voice came from heaven, saying: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” The apostle Peter testifies to this, saying: “And we heard this voice borne from heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.” For this voice sounded from heaven three times, as those know who read or hear the Gospels attentively. By the dove he understands the anointing who knows that after the flood the dove brought an olive branch to the ark.

Summary: Prophecies of the exalted Jordan and of the anointing with the oil of gladness are fulfilled at Christ’s baptism, where the Spirit came as a dove and the Father spoke.

Isa 35:2 is quoted according to the Septuagint (“the deserts of the Jordan”); Migne’s reference is garbled. The three voices from heaven are those at the baptism, the transfiguration, and John 12:28.

De electione discipulorum. Promissio impleta. 13. Per Jeremiam prophetam: Mittam, inquit, ad eos piscatores, et piscabuntur eos; et venatores, et venabuntur eos (Jer. XVI, 16). Firmat hoc Evangelium Marci: Invenit Jesus, ait, Simonem Petrum, et An- dream fratrem ejus, juxta mare Galilææ, componentes retia, et ait illis: Venite post me, et faciam vos piscatores hominum (Marc. I, 16). Venantibus dedit montes altissimos cervis; petram refugium erinaciis (Ps. CIII, 18), et leporibus;, piscantibus vero, Volucres cœli et pisces maris, qui perambulant semitas maris (Ps.VIII, 9). Quod breviter exponit David, dicens: Principes populorum convenerunt cum Deo Abraham (Ps. XLVI, 10). Fatetur et Sibylla: Celsum cum sanctis; aevi jam termino in ipso.

Of the choosing of the disciples. A promise fulfilled. Through the prophet Jeremiah: “I will send,” he says, “fishers to them, and they will fish them; and hunters, and they will hunt them.” The Gospel of Mark confirms this: “Jesus found,” it says, “Simon Peter and Andrew his brother by the sea of Galilee, mending their nets, and said to them: Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.” To the hunters he gave the high mountains for the stags, the rock as refuge for the hedgehogs and the hares; to the fishers, the birds of the sky and the fish of the sea, which pass through the paths of the sea. David explains this briefly, saying: “The princes of the peoples have gathered together with the God of Abraham.” The Sibyl too acknowledges: “exalted with the saints, at the very end of time.”

Notes and citation

Summary: Jeremiah’s fishers and hunters are fulfilled in Christ’s call of Peter and Andrew to be fishers of men, with Psalms on the beasts and fish of their catch.

The Gospel words combine Mark 1:16–17 with Matt 4:21 (“mending their nets”).

De miraculis Christi. Promissio credita et visa. 14. Isaias propheta: Exhortamini, ait, qui estis pusillanimes, confortamini, et jam nolite timere. Ecce enim Deus noster retribuet judicium, ipse veniet, et salvos nos faciet. Tunc aperientur oculi cæcorum, et aures surdorum audient. Tunc saliet claudus sicut cervus, et plana erit lingua mutorum (Isa. XXXV. 4. etc. ). Firmat hoc Evangelium Marci, dicens: Venerunt discipuli Joannis missi ab eo ad Jesum, et dicunt ei: Hæc dicit magister: Tu es qui venisti, an alium exspectamus? Respondit eis Jesus: Ite, dicite Joanni quæ vidistis et audistis. Cæci vident, claudi ambulant, surdi audiunt, leprosi mundantur, pauperes evangelizantur, et beatus qui non fuerit scandalizatus in me (Matth. XI, it etc ). Testatur et Petrus in Actibus Apostolorum: Jesus, ait, qui venit benefaciens et curans in plebe omnem infirmitatem, quia Deus erat in eo (Act. x, 38). Dicit ad hæc et Maro (Eadem Eclog. IV, v. 15); Ipse deum vitam accipiet.

Of the miracles of Christ. A promise believed and seen. The prophet Isaiah says: “Encourage one another, you who are faint-hearted; be strong, and now do not fear. For behold, our God will repay judgment; he himself will come and save us. Then the eyes of the blind will be opened, and the ears of the deaf will hear. Then the lame will leap like a stag, and the tongue of the mute will be clear.” The Gospel of Mark confirms this, saying: “John’s disciples came, sent by him to Jesus, and said to him: Thus says our master: Are you the one who has come, or do we wait for another? Jesus answered them: Go, tell John what you have seen and heard. The blind see, the lame walk, the deaf hear, lepers are cleansed, the poor have good news preached to them, and blessed is he who is not offended in me.” Peter too testifies in the Acts of the Apostles: “Jesus,” he says, “who went about doing good and healing every infirmity among the people, because God was in him.” And Maro says to this: “He will receive the life of the gods.”

Notes and citation

Summary: Isaiah’s prophecy of the blind seeing and the lame leaping is fulfilled in Christ’s answer to John’s disciples, attested by Peter, with a line of Virgil.

The Gospel answer is from Matt 11:2–6 (cited by Migne), though attributed to Mark. The Virgil line is Eclogue 4.15.

3.14PL 51:823

De Christo, quod mare pedibus ambulavit. Promissio credita et visa. 15. David propheta: In mari est via tua, et semitæ tuæ in aquis multis (Ps. IXXVI, 20). Dicit et Habacuc: Dispergens aquas itineris, dedit abyssus vocem suam (Habac. III, 10). Firmant hæc Evangelium Matthæi, dicens: Quarta autem noctis vigilia venit Jesus ad discipulos suos, ambulans supra mare. Videntes vero eum discipuli timuerunt, dicentes: Quia phantasma est. Accedens autem ad eos Jesus, dixit eis: Ego sum, nolite timere (Matth. XIV, 25, etc.). Salomon etiam dicit: Dedisti in mari viam et inter fluctus semitam firmissimam, ostendens quoniam potes etiam sine rate transeuntes mare servare (Sap. XIV, 3). Quod etiam in Petro Jesus fecisse cognoscitur (Matth. XIV, 3). Testatur et Paulus in naufragio astitisse sibi Jesum, dicentem: Ne timeas, Paule; ecce enim donavit tibi Deus omnes qui tecum navigant (Act. XXVII, 24). Ex quibus nullus hominum periit nisi navis tantum. Sibylla vero supra dicta ad utrumque respondit: Exuret terras ignis, pontumque polumque.

Of Christ, that he walked on the sea with his feet. A promise believed and seen. The prophet David says: “Your way is in the sea, and your paths in many waters.” And Habakkuk says: “Scattering the waters of the way, the deep gave forth its voice.” The Gospel of Matthew confirms this, saying: “In the fourth watch of the night Jesus came to his disciples, walking on the sea. Seeing him, the disciples were afraid, saying: It is a phantom. But Jesus, coming near to them, said to them: It is I; do not be afraid.” Solomon too says: “You have given a way in the sea and a most firm path among the waves, showing that you can save even those who cross the sea without a ship.” This Jesus is known to have done also in Peter. Paul too testifies that in the shipwreck Jesus stood by him, saying: “Do not fear, Paul; for behold, God has given you all who sail with you.” Of whom no man perished, but only the ship. And the Sibyl mentioned above answers to both: “fire will burn up the lands, and sea and sky.”

3.15PL 51:823

De Jesu, quod mirabiliter populos pavit in deserto. Promissio credita et visa. 16. David propheta: Satiavit, ait, animam inanem, et animam esurientem bonis replevit (Ps. CVI, 9). Et Isaias dicit: Cibabit te in hæreditate patris tui Jacob (Isa. LVIII, 14). Firmant hæc evangelistæ: quod Jesus jussit discipulis suis quinquagenos in feno discumbere; et ex quinque panibus et duobus piscibus hominum quinque millia pavit in eremo, et ex reliquiis duodecim cophini repleti sunt. Testatur et Paulus: Omnes, ait, enim de uno pane participamus (I Cor. X. 17). Et iterum: Sanctificantur omnia per verbum Dei et orationem (I Tim. IV, 5). Et ad hoc signum supra dicta Sibylla resonat.

Of Jesus, that he wonderfully fed the peoples in the desert. A promise believed and seen. The prophet David says: “He satisfied the empty soul, and filled the hungry soul with good things.” And Isaiah says: “He will feed you with the inheritance of your father Jacob.” The evangelists confirm this: that Jesus ordered his disciples to make them recline on the grass in fifties, and from five loaves and two fish fed five thousand men in the desert, and twelve baskets were filled with the leftovers. Paul too testifies: “For we all partake of the one bread.” And again: “All things are sanctified by the word of God and prayer.” And to this sign the Sibyl mentioned above resounds.

3.16PL 51:823

De Jesu, quod portatus asello est. Promissio credita et visa. 17. Zacharias propheta: Dicit, ait, filiæ Sion: Ecce Rex tuus venit tibi justus et salvans; ipse mansuetus, sedens super subjugalem asinam et pullum novellum (Zach. IX, 9). Hæc omnes evangelistæ con- firmant, quod Jesus sederit in pullo, eique indumenta sua populus straverit (Matth. XXI, 5; Marc. XI, 7; Luc. XIX, 35: Joan. XII, 14). In hoc facto Jesus Cornelium ostendit ex gentibus venientem ad fidem, in quo sedit gratia vocantis (Act. I, I, etc.). Quoniam in disco illo gentes mundatas Petro Dominus ostendit, credente Cornelio (Ibid., 15).

Of Jesus, that he was carried by a donkey. A promise believed and seen. The prophet Zechariah says: “Say to the daughter of Zion: Behold, your King comes to you, just and saving; he is meek, sitting on a beast of burden, a donkey and a young colt.” All the evangelists confirm this, that Jesus sat on the colt and the people spread their garments for him. In this deed Jesus showed Cornelius coming from the nations to faith, on whom the grace of the one calling sat. For in that vessel the Lord showed Peter the nations cleansed, when Cornelius believed.

3.17PL 51:823

De Jesu, quod de templo Dei expulit mercatores [Al. peccatores]. Promissio credita et visa. 18. Per David prophetam ipse dicit: Comedit me zelus domus tuæ (Ps. LXVIII, 10), quoniam obliti sunt verborum tuorum inimici mei (Ps. CXVIII. 139). Item ibidem: Quoniam non cognovi negotiationem, introibo in potentiam Domini (Ps. LXX, 15). Et hæc evangelistæ confirmant, Jesum Dominum ex fla- gello resticulæ pepulisse de templo ementes et vendentes columbas (Matth. XXI 12; Joan. II, 15); et mensas nummulariorum evertit, dicens: Domus mea domus orationis vocabitur, vos autem fecistis eam speluncam latronum (Matth. xxi, 13). Testatur et Paulus: Si quis, inquit, templum Dei violaverit, disperdet illum Deus (I Cor. III, 17). Et iterum: Scripta autem sunt hæc ad correptionem nostram, in quos finis sæculorum obvenit (I Cor., 11). In quo etiam amatores pecuniæ notat inter cætera; et proditores, qui, ut columbas, innocentes prodendo distrahunt. Hinc est etiam illud Maronis (Æneid. VIII; v. 325): Paulatim ac decolor ætas, Et belli rabies et amor successit habendi.

Of Jesus, that he drove the merchants [another reading: sinners] out of the temple of God. A promise believed and seen. Through the prophet David he himself says: “Zeal for your house has consumed me,” because “my enemies have forgotten your words.” Again in the same place: “Because I have not known trading, I will enter into the power of the Lord.” The evangelists too confirm this, that the Lord Jesus, with a whip of cords, drove out of the temple those who bought and sold doves; and he overturned the tables of the money-changers, saying: “My house shall be called a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of robbers.” Paul too testifies: “If anyone,” he says, “violates the temple of God, God will destroy him.” And again: “These things were written for our correction, upon whom the end of the ages has come.” In this he also marks, among others, lovers of money, and traitors who, like doves, sell off the innocent by betraying them. Hence too that saying of Maro: “By degrees a worse and discolored age, and the madness of war and the love of having, came in.”

3.18PL 51:823–825

De Christo Domino, qui sui traditorem ostendit. Promissio credita et visa. 19. Per David prophetam ipse dicit: Qui edebat panes meos, amplificavit super me calcaneum (Ps. XL. 10). Item ibi: Egrediebatur, ait, foras, et loquebatur in eodem: adversum me susurrabant omnes inimici mei, adversum me cogitabant mihi mala (Ibid., 7). Et iterum: Si inimicus maledixisset mihi, sustinuissem utique; et si is qui oderat me, super me magnum verbum dixisset, absconderem me utique ab eo. Tu autem homo, unanimis, dux meus et notus meus, qui simul mecum dulces capiebas cibos (Ps. LIV, 13). Et apertius: Traditus sum, ait, et non egrediebar (Ps. LXXXVII, 9). Dicit et per Zachariam: Dederunt mercedem meam triginta argenteos (Zach. XI, 12). Hæc omnes evangelistæ confirmant: quod Jesus Dominus discumbentibus discipulis dixerit: Scitis quia unus ex vobis tradet me (Matth. XXVII, 9)? Cumque singuli dicerent: Numquid ego sum, Rabbi? ait: Cui intinctam buccellam dedero, ipse est (Joan. XIII, 26). Dicente vero Juda: Numquid ego sum, Magister? ait illi Jesus: Tu dixisti. Et continuo cum accepisset buccellam, introiit in eum Satanas. Et abiit, et exiit foras, ut eum traderet Judaeis. Et iterum abiit Judas, et retulit argentum principibus sacerdotum, dicens Peccavi tradendo sanguinem justum (Marc. XIV, 18; Luc. XIII, 21; Matth. XXVII, 4). Testatur et Paulus: Dominus Jesus, ait, ea nocte qua tradebatur, accepit panem (I Cor. XI, 23); et cætera quæ usque ad traditionem acta sunt. Fateturque Sibylla: Tradetur, sontes æterna flamma cremabit.

Of Christ the Lord, who pointed out his betrayer. A promise believed and seen. Through the prophet David he himself says: “He who ate my bread has lifted up his heel against me.” Again in the same place: “He went outside and spoke of the same thing; all my enemies whispered against me; against me they devised evils for me.” And again: “If an enemy had cursed me, I would surely have borne it; and if one who hated me had spoken great things against me, I would surely have hidden from him. But you, a man of one mind with me, my leader and my acquaintance, who took sweet food together with me.” And more plainly: “I was handed over, and did not go out.” He says too through Zechariah: “They gave thirty pieces of silver as my wage.” All the evangelists confirm this: that the Lord Jesus said to the disciples as they reclined: “Do you know that one of you will betray me?” And when they said one by one, “Is it I, Rabbi?”, he said: “He to whom I give the dipped morsel, he is the one.” When Judas said, “Is it I, Master?”, Jesus said to him: “You have said it.” And immediately, when he had taken the morsel, Satan entered into him. And he went away and went out, to betray him to the Jews. And again Judas went and brought back the silver to the chief priests, saying: “I have sinned in betraying innocent blood.” Paul too testifies: “The Lord Jesus,” he says, “on the night when he was betrayed, took bread,” and the rest that was done up to the betrayal. And the Sibyl acknowledges: “will be given; the guilty the eternal flame will burn.”

Notes and citation

Summary: The Psalms on the friend who ate Christ’s bread and lifted his heel, and Zechariah’s thirty pieces of silver, are fulfilled in Judas’ betrayal at the Last Supper.

The Gospel narrative is a harmony of Matt 26:21–25, John 13:26–30, and Matt 27:3–4. The Sibylline words are from the acrostic (Sib. Or. 8.228); “tradetur” there means that light “will be given” to the saints, here applied to the betrayal.

3.19PL 51:825

De contumeliis in Jesum. Promissio impleta. 20. Per Isaiam prophetam: Ipse dorsum meum, ait, posui ad flagella, maxillas vero meas ad palmas, faciem vero meam non averti a fœditate sputorum (Isa. L. 6). Et Jeremias dicit: Dabit percutienti se maxillam, saturabitur opprobriis (Thren. III, 30). Et hæc omnes evangelistæ confirmant, quod flagellatum Jesum eis Pilatus tradidit crucifigendum, eique palmas et colaphos dabant, dicentes: Prophetiza nobis, Christe, quis te percussit (Matth. XXVI, 67)? Testatur in his et Petrus apostolus, dicens: Christus pro nobis passus est, vobis relinquens exemplum ut sequamini vestigia eius. Qui cum malediceretur, non remaledicebat; cum pateretur, non comminabatur; commendabat autem judicanti se juste (I Petr. II, 21 seq.). Fatetur Sibylla alia: In manus, inquit, impiorum postea veniet, dabunt Deo alapas manibus incestis, et impurato ore exspuent venenatos sputos. Dabit vero ipse ad verbera sanctum dorsum, et colaphos accipiens tacebat; ne quis agnoscat quod Verbum, vel unde veniat. Quæ omnia impleta in Christo Domino, omnis jam mundus agnoscit.

Of the insults against Jesus. A promise fulfilled. Through the prophet Isaiah: “I gave my back to the scourges,” he says, “and my cheeks to blows, and I did not turn away my face from the filth of spitting.” And Jeremiah says: “He will give his cheek to the one who strikes him; he will be filled with reproaches.” All the evangelists confirm this, that Pilate handed Jesus over to them scourged to be crucified, and they struck him with palms and fists, saying: “Prophesy to us, Christ: who struck you?” The apostle Peter testifies in these things, saying: “Christ suffered for us, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps. When he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten; but he entrusted himself to him who judges justly.” Another Sibyl acknowledges: “He will afterwards come,” she says, “into the hands of the impious; they will give God blows with unclean hands, and with polluted mouth they will spit poisoned spittle. He will give his holy back to the scourges, and receiving the buffets he was silent, so that no one may know what Word he is, or whence he comes.” All of which the whole world now recognizes as fulfilled in Christ the Lord.

De Christo spinis coronato. Promissio impleta. 21. Per David ipse: Conversus sum, ait, in ærumna, dum infigeretur spina (Ps. XXXI, 4). Et hoc evangelistæ confirmant, quod spineam coronam imposuerunt capiti ejus, et crucem suam portans exiit (Matth. xxvii, 29; Marc. xv, 17; Joan. xix, 18). Hoc etiam aries ille signavit, qui in spinis cornibus detentus immolatus est pro Isaac (Gen. XXII, 13). Fatetur et Sibylla: « Ut inferis loquatur, et corona spinea coronetur (Apud August. eod. c. 12, lib. XVIII de Civ.). »

Of Christ crowned with thorns. A promise fulfilled. Through David he himself says: “I was turned in my misery, while the thorn was fixed in me.” And the evangelists confirm this, that they placed a crown of thorns on his head, and he went out carrying his cross. That ram too signified this, which, caught by its horns in thorns, was sacrificed in place of Isaac. And the Sibyl acknowledges: “that he may speak to those below, and be crowned with a crown of thorns” (cited in Augustine, City of God 18.23).

De Christi cruce et vulneribus. Promissio impleta. 22. Isaias propheta: Sicut ovis, ait, ad victimam ductus est, et sicut agnus coram tondente se, non aperuit os suum (Isa. LIII, 7). Et iterum: Pro iniquitate populi mei ductus est ad mortem (Ibid., 8). Dicit et per David: Foderunt manus meas et pedes; dinumeraverunt omnia ossa mea (Ps. XXI, 17). Jeremias etiam dicit: Ante faciem nostram Christus Dominus comprehensus est in corruptionem eorum (Thren. IV, 20). Item ipse: Venite, ait, mittamus lignum in panem ejus (Jer. XI, 19). Firmant haec omnes evangelistæ, quod venientes ad locum qui dicitur Golgotha, quod est Calvariæ locus, ibi eum crucifixerunt (Matth. XXVII 33). Testatur in hæc Petrus apostolus, dicens: Peccata nostra pertulit in corpore suo super lignum (I Petr. II. 24). Dicit et Paulus. Etsi crucifixus est ex infirmitate, sed vivit in virtute Dei (II Cor. XIII, 4).

Of the cross and wounds of Christ. A promise fulfilled. The prophet Isaiah says: “Like a sheep he was led to the slaughter, and like a lamb before its shearer he did not open his mouth.” And again: “For the iniquity of my people he was led to death.” He says too through David: “They dug my hands and my feet; they numbered all my bones.” Jeremiah also says: “Before our face Christ the Lord was taken in their corruption.” Again he says: “Come, let us put wood into his bread.” All the evangelists confirm this, that coming to the place called Golgotha, which is the place of the skull, there they crucified him. The apostle Peter testifies to this, saying: “He bore our sins in his body on the wood.” And Paul says: “Though he was crucified in weakness, yet he lives by the power of God.”

Quod Christus in medio latronum sit crucifixus. Promissio impleta. 23. Isaias propheta: Inter sceleratos, inquit, deputatus est, qui peccatum non fecit, cujus livore sanati sumus omnes (Isa. LIII. 12 et 5; I Cor. XV, 3). Firmat hoc Evangelium Joannis dicens: Cum eo alios duos hinc et inde latrones crucifixerunt, in medio autem Jesum (Joan. XIX, 18). Dicit ad hæc Petrus apostolus: Nemo autem vestrum patiatur quasi homicida, aut fur, aut maledicus: si vero quasi Christianus, non erubescat, glorificet autem Dominum in hoc nomine (I Petr. iv, 15,16).

That Christ was crucified between robbers. A promise fulfilled. The prophet Isaiah says: “He was counted among the wicked, he who committed no sin, by whose bruise we have all been healed.” The Gospel of John confirms this, saying: “With him they crucified two other robbers, one on each side, and Jesus in the middle.” To this the apostle Peter says: “Let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or a slanderer; but if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but glorify God in this name.”

Quod vestimenta ejus diviserunt, et sortem super tunicam ejus miserunt. Promissio impleta. 24. Per David prophetam: Ipsi diviserunt sibi, ait, vestimenta mea, et super vestem meam miserunt sortem (Ps. XXI, 19). Firmat hæc Joannes evangelista. Milites vero, ait, crucifigentes Jesum, acceperunt vestimenta ejus, et fecerunt quatuor partes. Similiter et tunicam, quæ erat desuper contexta per totum, dixerunt: Non scindamus eam, sed sortiamur de illa cujus sit (Joan. XIX. 23, 24). Hanc tunicam unam esse Ecclesiam catholicam apostolus Paulus ostendit, dicens: Christus dilexit Ecclesiam, et seipsum tradidit pro ea. ut eam sanctificaret, mundans eam lavacro aquæ in verbo: ut exhiberet sibi ipse gloriosam Ecclesiam, non habentem maculam aut rugam, aut aliquid hujusmodi, sed ut sit sancta et immaculata (Ephes.V, 23, etc.).

That they divided his garments and cast lots for his tunic. A promise fulfilled. Through the prophet David: “They divided my garments among them,” he says, “and for my clothing they cast lots.” John the evangelist confirms this: “The soldiers,” he says, “when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four parts. Likewise the tunic, which was woven from the top throughout; they said: Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be.” That this tunic is the one Catholic Church the apostle Paul shows, saying: “Christ loved the Church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, cleansing her by the washing of water in the word, that he might present the Church to himself glorious, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she might be holy and immaculate.”

Ps 22:18 (21:19 Vulg.) (quotation, high confidence) · John 19:23–24 (quotation, high confidence) · Eph 5:25–27 (quotation, high confidence)

Summary: The Psalm’s divided garments and lots are fulfilled at the cross; the seamless tunic is the one Catholic Church which Christ loved and cleansed.

De Christo, qui felle et aceto potatus est. Promissio impleta. 25. Per David prophetam ipse: Dederunt, ait, in escam meam fel, et in siti mea potaverunt me aceto (Ps. LXVIII, 22). Et hæc omnes evangelistæ confirmant. Sciens Jesus. ait Joannes, quia omnia consummata sunt, ut impleretur Scriptura, ait: Sitio. Vas positum erat aceto plenum, et spongiam plena aceto: hyssopo circumponentes, obtulerunt ori ejus. Cum ergo accepisset Jesus acetum plenum felle, ait: Consummatum est, et inclinato capite, tradidit spiritum (Joan. XIX, 28. etc.). Et per David hanc herbam non tacuit dicens: Asperges me hyssopo, et mundabor (Ps. L, 9). Fatetur et Sibylla: Ad cibum autem, ait, fel, et ad sitim acetum dederunt, inhospitalitatis hanc monstrabunt mensam (Apud Augustin., ubi supra). Ad hæc quoque Virgilianum illud respondet (Eclog. 4. v. 44): Occidet et serpens, et fallax herba veneni. Occidet: tunc enim diabolus victus est.

Of Christ, who was given gall and vinegar to drink. A promise fulfilled. Through the prophet David he himself says: “They gave me gall for my food, and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.” All the evangelists confirm this. “Jesus, knowing,” says John, “that all things were now finished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said: I thirst. A vessel full of vinegar was standing there, and putting a sponge full of vinegar on hyssop, they brought it to his mouth. When Jesus had received the vinegar full of gall, he said: It is finished; and bowing his head, he gave up his spirit.” And through David he did not keep silent about this plant, saying: “You will sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be clean.” And the Sibyl acknowledges: “For food they gave gall, and for his thirst vinegar; this table of inhospitality they will show” (in Augustine, as above). To this that saying of Virgil also answers: “The serpent too shall die, and the deceitful poisonous herb.” “Shall die”: for then the devil was conquered.

De Christo, quod lancea percussus, et ex latere ejus sanguis et aqua manavit. Promissio impleta. 26. Zacharias propheta: Videbant in quem pupugerunt (Zach. III, 10). Et iterum in lege dictum est: Os non comminuetis ex eo (Exod. XII. 46). Jeremias vero dicit: Dabit in fossura os suum (Thren. III, 30). Firmant hæc evangelistæ, dicente Joanne: Ad Jesum autem cum venissent milites, eumque vidissent mortuum, non fregerunt ejus crura, ut latronum; sed unus e militibus lancea latus ejus aperuit, et continuo exiit sanguis et aqua (Joan. xix, 33, etc.). Testatur in his Petrus apostolus: Scientes, ait, quia non auro vel argento redempti estis a vana vestra conversatione paternae traditionis, sed pretioso sanguine Agni immaculati (I Petr. i, 18). Dicit et Joannes apostolus: Tria sunt quæ testimonium dicunt, spiritus, sanguis et aqua (I Joan. v, 8). Et sequitur: Si testimonium hominum acceperimus, testimonium Dei majus est (Ibid., 9). Fatetur et Sibylla (Ubi supra) increpans Judæam gentem: « Ipse enim insipiens, ait, tuum Deum non intellexisti ludentem mortalium sensibus, et spinis coronasti, et horridum fel miscuisti. »

Of Christ, that he was pierced by a lance, and blood and water flowed from his side. A promise fulfilled. The prophet Zechariah says: “They will look on him whom they pierced.” And again it was said in the law: “You shall not break a bone of it.” And Jeremiah says: “He will give his mouth to the pit.” The evangelists confirm this, John saying: “When the soldiers came to Jesus and saw that he was dead, they did not break his legs, as they did the robbers’; but one of the soldiers opened his side with a lance, and at once there came out blood and water.” The apostle Peter testifies to these things: “Knowing,” he says, “that you were redeemed from your futile way of life inherited from your fathers, not with gold or silver, but with the precious blood of the spotless Lamb.” And John the apostle says: “There are three that bear witness, the spirit, the blood, and the water.” And it continues: “If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater.” And the Sibyl acknowledges (as above), rebuking the Jewish nation: “For you yourself, foolish one, did not understand your God, who played with the minds of mortals, but crowned him with thorns and mixed bitter gall.”

Quod in Christi passione sol lunaque obscurati sunt. Promissio impleta. 27. Joel propheta: Ante faciem ejus, ait, confundetur terra et movebitur cœlum, sol et luna contenebrescent, et sidera abscondent lumen suum (Joel II 10 Isai. XIII. 10). Et hæc evangelistæ dicentes confirmant: Postquam crucifixus est Jesus, tenebræ factæ sunt per universam terram a sexta hora usque in nonam (Ma th. XXVII, 45). Et iterum: Postquam emisit spiritum Jesus, velum templi scissum est in duas partes a summo usque ad deorsum (Ibid., 51).

Fatetur et Sibylla: Templi vero velum, ait, scindetur, et medio die nox erit tenebrosa nimis in tribus horis. »

That at Christ’s passion the sun and moon were darkened. A promise fulfilled. The prophet Joel says: “Before his face the earth will be confounded and the heaven moved; the sun and moon will be darkened, and the stars will hide their light.” And the evangelists confirm this, saying: “After Jesus was crucified, darkness came over the whole earth from the sixth hour until the ninth.” And again: “After Jesus gave up his spirit, the veil of the temple was torn in two parts from top to bottom.” And the apostle Paul says: “When they turn to Christ, the veil will be taken away.” And the Sibyl acknowledges: “The veil of the temple will be torn, and at midday there will be exceedingly dark night for three hours.”

De sepultura Christi Domini. Promissio impleta. 28. Per David prophetam ipse: Factus sum, ait, sicut homo sine adjutorio in mortuis liber, et sicut vulnerati dormientes projecti in monumentis (Psal. LXXXVII, 5, 6). Item in eodem: Non derelinques ait, animam meam apud inferos, neque dabis Sanctum tuum videre corruptionem (Ps. XV, 10). Hic etiam Matthæus et cæteri evangelistæ testantur quod Joseph ab Arimathia, permittente Pilato, acceperit corpus Jesu, et linteaminibus obvolutum posuerit in monumento novo (Matth. XXVII, 57; Marc. xv, 42; Luc. XXIII, 50; Joan. XIX, 38). Testatur et Paulus dicens Corinthiis: Tradidi enim vobis in primis quod et accepi, quia Christus mortuus est pro peccatis nostris secundum Scripturas, et quia sepultus est, et quia resurrexit tertia die secundum Scripturas (I Cor. XV, 3). Fatetur et Sibylla (Ubi supra): « Et morte morietur, ait, tribus diebus, somno suscepto. »

Of the burial of Christ the Lord. A promise fulfilled. Through the prophet David he himself says: “I have become like a man without help, free among the dead, and like the wounded sleeping, cast out in the tombs.” Again in the same: “You will not leave my soul in the underworld, nor let your holy one see corruption.” Here too Matthew and the other evangelists testify that Joseph of Arimathea, Pilate permitting, received the body of Jesus and, wrapping it in linen cloths, laid it in a new tomb. And Paul testifies, saying to the Corinthians: “For I handed on to you first of all what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that he was buried, and that he rose on the third day according to the Scriptures.” And the Sibyl acknowledges (as above): “And he will die in death, taking sleep for three days.”

Ros enim qui a te est, medicina illis est (Isai. XXVI., 19). Hæc firmat Matthæus evangelista, dicens: Terra mota est, et petræ scissæ sunt, et monumenta aperta sunt et multa corpora sanctorum dormientium surrexerunt. Et exeuntes de monumentis post resurrectionem ipsius, venerunt in sanctam civitatem et apparuerunt multis (Matth. XXVIX, 51, etc.). Dicit et Paulus: Si consurrexistis cum Christo, quæ sursum sunt quærite, ubi Christus est in dextera. Dei sedens (Coloss. III, 4). Testatur et Petrus apostolus dicens: Ideo et mortuis evangelizatum est (1 Petr. IV, 6). Fatetur et Sibylla: Tartareumque chaos monstravit terra dehiscens. Inquirens tetri portas infringet Averni, Sanctorum sed enim cunctæ lux libera carni

That at Christ’s death the bodies of the saints rose. A promise fulfilled. The prophet Isaiah says: “The dead will rise, and those in the tombs will be raised, and all who are on the earth will rejoice. For the dew that is from you is healing for them.” Matthew the evangelist confirms this, saying: “The earth shook, and the rocks were split, and the tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep rose. And coming out of the tombs after his resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.” And Paul says: “If you have risen with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.” The apostle Peter too testifies, saying: “For this reason the gospel was preached even to the dead.” And the Sibyl acknowledges: “and the earth, gaping, showed the chaos of Tartarus; searching, it will break the gates of grim Avernus; but free light to all the flesh of the saints …”

3.29PL 51:827–829

Quod tertia die a mortuis resurrexit. Promissio impleta. 30. Osee propheta dicit: Post biduum sanabit nos. Die tertia surgemus, et ante lucem paratum eum inveniemus (Osee XI, 3). Dicit et per David: Ipse exsurgam ante lucem (Psal. LXII, 2). Item ibi: Exsurrexit tamquam dormiens Dominus quasi potens crapulatus a vino (Ps. LXXVII, 65). Hæc Matthæus et cæteri evangelistæ confirmant, quod venientes principes sacerdotum dixerunt Pilato: Domine, rememorati sumus quod seductor ille dixerit adhuc vivens: Post tertium diem resurgam. Jube ergo custodiri sepulcrum (Matth. XXVII, 62, etc.). Dixerat enim eis: Generatio hæc generatio nequam est; signum quærit, et signum non dabitur illi, nisi Jona prophetæ. Sicut enim Jonas fuit in ventre ceti tribus diebus et tribus noctibus; ita oportet et Filium hominis in corde terræ esse tribus diebus et tribus noctibus (Matth. xii, 39, 40). Vespere autem sabbati, quæ lucescit in prima sabbati, venit Maria Magdalene et alia Maria videre sepulcrum. Et ecce terræ motus factus est magnus. Angelus enim Domini descendit de cœlo. et accedens revolvit lapidem, et sedebat super eum. Fuit autem aspectus ejus metuendus, et vestimentum ejus velut nix: præ metu autem ejus expaverunt custodes et facti sunt veluti mortui. Dixit autem angelus mulieribus: Nolite timere vos, scio enim quod Jesum, qui crucifixus est, quæritis: non est hic; surrexit enim; sicut dixit (Matth, XXVIII, 1 seq.). Testatur et Paulus Timotheo: Memor esto, ait, Christum Jesum resurrexisse a mortuis secundum Evangelium meum (II Tim. II, 8). Et Corinthiis: Christus, ait, resurrexit a mortuis primitiæ dormientium (I Cor. xv, 20). Quæritur hic quomodo primitiæ dicatur, cum et ipse suscitaverit mortuos, et Elias atque Elisæus a mortuis excitaverunt. Respondetur quod hi qui suscitati sunt, denuo mortui, cum sic dormientibus hodieque requiescunt: Christum autem Paulus apostolus dicit ideo primitias dormientium, quia surgens ex mortuis, jam non moritur, et mors ei ultra non dominabitur (Rom. VI, 9). Fatetur et Sibylla: Tunc ab inferis regressus, ad lucem veniet primus; resurrectionis principio revocatis ostenso.

That he rose from the dead on the third day. A promise fulfilled. The prophet Hosea says: “After two days he will heal us; on the third day we shall rise, and before the dawn we shall find him ready.” He says too through David: “I myself will rise before the dawn.” Again in the same place: “The Lord awoke as one sleeping, like a mighty man drunk with wine.” Matthew and the other evangelists confirm this, that the chief priests came and said to Pilate: “Lord, we remember that that deceiver said while he was still alive: After the third day I will rise. So order the tomb to be guarded.” For he had said to them: “This generation is a wicked generation; it seeks a sign, and no sign will be given it except the sign of Jonah the prophet. For as Jonah was in the belly of the whale three days and three nights, so must the Son of man be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.” “Late on the sabbath, as it was dawning toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb. And behold, there was a great earthquake. For an angel of the Lord came down from heaven, and coming near rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was fearful, and his garment like snow; for fear of him the guards trembled and became like dead men. But the angel said to the women: Do not fear, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified: he is not here; for he has risen, as he said.” Paul too testifies to Timothy: “Remember,” he says, “that Christ Jesus has risen from the dead, according to my gospel.” And to the Corinthians: “Christ,” he says, “has risen from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep.” Here it is asked how he is called the first fruits, since he himself raised the dead, and Elijah and Elisha raised them from the dead. The answer is that those who were raised died again and still rest today with those who sleep; but the apostle Paul calls Christ the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep because, rising from the dead, he no longer dies, and death will no longer have dominion over him. And the Sibyl acknowledges: “Then, returning from those below, he will come first to the light, showing the beginning of the resurrection to those called back.”

Notes and citation

Summary: Hosea’s third day and the Psalms’ rising before the dawn are fulfilled in the resurrection, the sign of Jonah, and the empty tomb; Christ is the first fruits because, unlike others raised, he dies no more.

Hos 6:2–3 is cited by Migne as Hos 11:3; Ps 57:8 (Vulgate 56:9) and 78:65 (Vulgate 77:65) are quoted in Latin forms. The Sibylline lines are Sib. Or. 8.313–314 as in Augustine, City of God 18.23.

3.30PL 51:829

De incredulis discipulis increpatis. Promissio impleta. 31. Osee propheta dicit: Sicut leo ructavit Dominus, quia ipse rugiet et obstupescent filii aquilarum (Osee XI, 10). Juxta illud dictum Jacob: Ascendisti recumbens, dormisti ut leo (Gen. XLIX, 9). Firmat hoc Evangelium Marci: Discumbentibus illis undecim, ait, apparuit illis Jesus, et increpavit incredulitatem eorum et duritiam cordis, quia eis qui viderant eum resurrexisse non crediderunt (Marc. XVI, 11). Et Thomæ in Joanne dixit: Injice huc digitum tuum, et vide manus meas; et manum tuam mitte in latus meum, et noli esse incredulus,sed fidelis (Joan. XX, 27). Testatur et Joannes in Epistola sua, dicens: Quod audivimus, quod vidimus nostris oculis, et manus nostræ contrectaverunt de Verbo vitæ, et vita palam facta est nobis (I Joan. I, 1). Et Paulus dicit: Apparuit Cephæ, postea undecim. Deinde apparuit plus quam quingentis fratribus simul, ex quibus plures manent usque adhuc (I Cor. XV, 5 et seq.). Item: Si Christus prædicatur quia resurrexit a mortuis, quomodo dicunt quidam in vobis, quia resurrectio mortuorum non est (Ibid., 12)? Dicit et Maro (Eclog. IV, v. 15. 14): Te duce, si qua manent sceleris vestigia nostri, Irrita perpetua solvent formidine terras.

Of the unbelieving disciples rebuked. A promise fulfilled. The prophet Hosea says: “The Lord has roared like a lion, for he himself will roar, and the sons of the eagles will be astonished.” In line with that saying of Jacob: “You went up, lying down; you slept like a lion.” The Gospel of Mark confirms this: “As the eleven were reclining,” it says, “Jesus appeared to them and rebuked their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they had not believed those who had seen him risen.” And to Thomas, in John, he said: “Put your finger here and see my hands; and put out your hand into my side, and do not be unbelieving but believing.” John too testifies in his letter, saying: “What we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; and the life was made manifest to us.” And Paul says: “He appeared to Cephas, then to the eleven. Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at once, of whom most remain until now.” Again: “If Christ is preached as risen from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?” And Maro says: “Under your leadership, if any traces of our crime remain, made void, they will free the lands from perpetual fear.”

Summary: Hosea’s roaring lion and Jacob’s sleeping lion are fulfilled in the risen Christ rebuking the disciples’ unbelief and showing Thomas his wounds, attested by John and Paul, with Virgil as witness.

Hos 11:10 is quoted in an Old Latin form (“the sons of the eagles”). Paul’s “then to the eleven” follows the Latin reading of 1 Cor 15:5. The Virgil lines are Eclogue 4.13–14.
