A church father on this verse
“The all-merciful and beneficent Father has [a heart for] those who fear him, and kindly and lovingly he bestows his favors upon those who come to him with a simple mind. Therefore let us not be double-minded; neither let our soul be lifted up on account of his exceedingly great and glorious gifts. Far from us be that…”

1I will stand upon my watch, and mount upon the rock, and watch to see what he will say by me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved.

2And the Lord answered me and said, Write the vision, and that plainly on a tablet, that he that reads it may run.

— Habakkuk 2:3 —

4If he should draw back, my soul has no pleasure in him: but the just shall live by my faith.

5But the arrogant man and the scorner, the boastful man, shall not finish anything; who has enlarged his desire as the grave, and like death he is never satisfied, and he will gather to himself all the nations, and will receive to himself all the peoples.
