- Genesis 1:2
Now the earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.
Commentary on Genesis 1:21 voice
The good architect lays the foundation first and afterward, when the foundation has been laid, plots the various parts of the building, one after the other, and then adds to it the ornamentation.… Scripture points out that things were first created and afterward put in order lest it be supposed that they were not actually created and that they had no beginning, just as if the nature of things had been, as it were, generated from the beginning and did not appear to be something added afterward.
Ambrose of Milan· The Six Days of Creation, 397Patristic
- Genesis 18:14
Is anything too difficult for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you—in about a year—and Sarah will have a son.”
Commentary on Genesis 18:141 voice
"Is anything too hard for the Lord? At the appointed time I will return to you, about this time next year, and Sarah shall have a son." With this statement heard, all doubt was so removed, and her faith so confirmed, that the Apostle rightly …
Bede· Commentary on Genesis (Hexaemeron), 735Patristic
- Genesis 32:28
Then the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with men, and you have prevailed.”
Commentary on Genesis 32:282 voices
Be with me now in thy faithful spirit, holy and blessed Patriarch Jacob, to combat the poisonous hissings of the serpent of unbelief. Prevail once more in thy wrestling with the Man, and, being the stronger, once more entreat His blessing. Why pray for what thou mightest demand from thy weaker Opponent? Thy strong arm has vanquished Him Whose blessing thou prayest. Thy bodily victory is in broad contrast to thy soul's humility, thy deeds to thy thoughts.
Hilary of Poitiers· ON THE TRINITY 5.19, 367Patristic
(Verse 27 and 28.) And he said to him: What is your name? He said, Jacob. And he said to him: Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but your name shall be called Israel: for you have wrestled with God, and have prevailed with men. Josephus, in the first book of Antiquities, thinks that Israel was called so because he wrestled with an angel. I carefully examined this, but I could not find it at all in Hebrew. And why should I seek the opinions of individuals, when the one who gave the name explains the etymology himself?
Jerome· Hebrew Questions on Genesis, 420Patristic
- Exodus 8:19
“This is the finger of God,” the magicians said to Pharaoh. But Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not listen to them, just as the LORD had said.
Commentary on Exodus 8:191 voice
"For in her is a spirit intelligent, holy, unique, manifold, subtle." This spirit lifts up the soul and teaches unforeseen things. "This is the finger of God" which the Pharaoh's magician cannot touch, that is, our mind. Many wise men possess the first faces of …
Bonaventure· Collations on the Hexaemeron, Collation 2, 1257Patristic
- Exodus 9:3
then the hand of the LORD will bring a severe plague on your livestock in the field—on your horses, donkeys, camels, herds, and flocks.
Commentary on Exodus 9:31 voice
In the fifth place, Egypt is struck with the slaughter of animals or cattle. Frenzy is demonstrated here, and the stupidity of men who, like irrational animals, gave worship and the name of god to figures carved in wood or stone—figures not only of men …
Isidore of Seville· QUESTIONS ON THE OLD TESTAMENT, EX 14:10, 636Patristic
- Exodus 9:15
For by this time I could have stretched out My hand and struck you and your people with a plague to wipe you off the earth.
Commentary on Exodus 9:152 voices
For now will I stretch out my hand, that I may smite thee and thy people with pestilence,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
For now I will stretch out my hand - In the Hebrew the verbs are in the past tense, and not in the future, as our translation improperly expresses them, by which means a contradiction appears in the text: for neither Pharaoh nor his people were smitten by a pestilence, nor was he by any kind of mortality cut off from the earth. It is true the first-born were slain by a destroying angel, and Pharaoh himself was drowned in the Red Sea; but these judgments do not appear to be referred to in this place.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Exodus 9:16
But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display My power to you, and that My name might be proclaimed in all the earth.
Commentary on Exodus 9:161 voice
And in very deed, for this cause have I raised thee up,.... Or but truly or verily (c); instead of smiting thee with the pestilence, and cutting thee off out of the land of the living, "I have raised thee up"; made thee to stand (d), to continue in being; I have preserved thine from perishing by the former plagues, and have reserved thee for greater judgments and sorer punishments.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
- Exodus 15:6
Your right hand, O LORD, is majestic in power; Your right hand, O LORD, has shattered the enemy.
Commentary on Exodus 15:61 voice
Thy right hand, O Lord, hath dashed in pieces the enemies. For the enemies of God, though they prosper in His left hand, are dashed to pieces with His right; since for the most part the present life elevates the bad, but the coming of eternal blessedness condemns them.
Gregory the Dialogist· The Book of Pastoral Rule, Part 3, Chapter 26, 604Patristic
- Exodus 15:11
Who among the gods is like You, O LORD? Who is like You—majestic in holiness, revered with praises, performing wonders?
Commentary on Exodus 15:111 voice
Who is like unto thee, O Lord, among the gods?....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
- Exodus 15:12
You stretched out Your right hand, and the earth swallowed them up.
Commentary on Exodus 15:121 voice
Thou stretchedst out thy right hand,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
- Deuteronomy 3:24
“O Lord GOD, You have begun to show Your greatness and power to Your servant. For what god in heaven or on earth can perform such works and mighty acts as Yours?
Commentary on Deuteronomy 3:242 voices
O Lord God, thou hast begun to show thy servant thy greatness and thy mighty hand,.... To give a specimen of the greatness of his power in subduing the two kings and their kingdoms, and delivering them up into the hands of the Israelites.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
The prayer of Moses recorded in these two verses, and his own reflections on it, Deu 3:26, are very affecting. He had suffered much both in body and mind in bringing the people to the borders of the promised land; and it was natural enough for him to wish to see them established in it, and to enjoy a portion of that inheritance himself, which he knew was a type of the heavenly country. But notwithstanding his very earnest prayer, and Gods especial favor towards him, he was not permitted to go over Jordan!
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Deuteronomy 32:39
See now that I am He; there is no God besides Me. I bring death and I give life; I wound and I heal, and there is no one who can deliver from My hand.
Commentary on Deuteronomy 32:391 voice
He himself permits the suffering which he again restores. The One who strikes is the One who heals. The afflictions precede in order that the graces may be lasting. Only then do we exert ourselves exceedingly for the preservation of what has been given.
Basil of Caesarea· HOMILY ON PSALM 29:4, 379Patristic
- 1 Samuel 14:6
Jonathan said to the young man bearing his armor, “Come, let us cross over to the outpost of these uncircumcised men. Perhaps the LORD will work on our behalf. Nothing can hinder the LORD from saving, whether by many or by few.”
Commentary on 1 Samuel 14:61 voice
What is the garrison of the Philistines, if not the strength of malignant spirits? For holy men, when they prepare themselves for the correction of sinners, openly know that they fight against angels fallen from heaven. This battle, therefore, since it is between angels and men, is fought by the strong against the weak, by the cunning against the simple. For he had received an assault from these strong ones, who said: "The strong have rushed upon me, though neither my iniquity nor my sin, O Lord" (Psalm 58:4).
Gregory the Dialogist· Commentary on 1 Kings, Book 5, Chapter 4, 604Patristic
- 1 Chronicles 16:9
Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; tell of all His wonders.
- 1 Chronicles 29:11
Yours, O LORD, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the splendor and the majesty, for everything in heaven and on earth belongs to You. Yours, O LORD, is the kingdom, and You are exalted as head over all.
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 29:111 voice
Thine, O Lord, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
- 1 Chronicles 29:12
Both riches and honor come from You, and You are the ruler over all. In Your hands are power and might to exalt and give strength to all.
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 29:121 voice
Both riches and honour come of thee,....
