Holy Scripture

Psalms 147:6

A church father on this verse
“The Lord who lifts up the meek. What are those stars? The Lord who lifts up the meek. The meek are turned into stars. But the just shall shine like the stars of heaven: Daniel says it. But bringing down sinners even to the ground. See the difference of things. Angels fall down to the earth: men go to heaven. The Lord…”
Jerome, 5th c. — Homily 56, on Psalm 146
