Psalms 31:1

A church father on this verse
“Not only does God free us into righteousness but also into temperance, fortitude and love. He uses "righteousness" to embrace all virtues. Perhaps he understands "Christ" for "righteousness." "He is made wisdom to us by God and our righteousness and sanctification and redemption."”
Evagrius Ponticus, 4th c. — NOTES ON THE PSALMS 30[31].2
