On
Psalm XXIII. Or XXIV
. From the
Commentary by the Same, on
Ps. xxiii.
1208
He comes to the heavenly gates: angels
accompany Him: and the gates of heaven were closed. For He
has not yet ascended into heaven. Now first does He appear to the
powers of heaven as flesh ascending. Therefore to these powers it
is said by the angels, who are the couriers of the Saviour and
Lord: “Lift up your gates, ye princes; and be lifted up, ye
everlasting doors: and the King of glory shall come in.
