Ephrem the Syrian : "He will equip you with everything good," and away from the covenant of the law, which you have now, "that you may do his will" in everything and not in accordance with the weak observations of the law. — COMMENTARY ON THE EPISTLE TO THE HEBREWS Oecumenius : "equip you in every good work." That is, to fulfill, to perfect. It shows, therefore, that they have begun the good works; they needed to be perfected in them; Paul who also prays for them. But see, that we must begin first, and then ask from God for the end. "That you do His will." For he who is equipped and filled for every good work, he has the strength to do the will of God. And he says every work, work and faith. "working in us that which is pleasing in his sight." When He equips us for every good work, to do His will, then He produces in us what is pleasing to Him. And what is pleasing to Him? It is to do His will. And when He said, which is pleasing, He added, in His sight. For we are truly pleasing when we appear good before God, not when we appear so only before men. "through Jesus Christ." He says, He does what is pleasing to Him, through us as go-betweens. Do you see that everything is of God? This He will do and accomplish for us, what is pleasing to Him, through Christ. For if He wished to be a mediator between God and us, it is fitting that the Father will accomplish what is pleasing to Himself for us through Him. — The Pseudo-Oecumenian Catena on Hebrews
