Holy Scripture

Psalms 76:4

A church father on this verse
“I will remind you again about Illuminations, and that often, and will reckon them up from holy Scripture. For I myself shall be happier for remembering them (for what is sweeter than light to those who have tasted light?). I will dazzle you with my words: "There is sprung up a light for the righteous, and its partner…”
Gregory of Nazianzus, 4th c. — ON HOLY BAPTISM, ORATION 40:36

In context

2I cried to the Lord with my voice, Yea, my voice was addressed to God; and he gave heed to me.

3In the day of mine affliction I earnestly sought the Lord; Even with my hands by night before him, and I was not deceived; My soul refused to be comforted.

— Psalms 76:4 —

5All mine enemies set a watch against me: I was troubled, and spoke not.

6I considered the days of old, And remembered ancient years.
