28.  In the might of this Spirit, as we have it in the Book of Judges, Othniel judged Judges iii. 10.; Gideon Ib. vi. 34. waxed strong; Jephtha conquered Ib. xi. 29.; Deborah, a woman, waged war; and Samson, so long as he did righteously, and grieved Him not, wrought deeds above man’s power.  And as for Samuel and David, we have it plainly in the Books of the Kingdoms, how by the Holy Ghost they prophesied themselves, and were rulers of the prophets;—and Samuel was called the Seer 1 Sam. ix. 9.; and David says distinctly, The Spirit of the Lord spake by me 2 Sam. xxiii. 2., and in the Psalms, And take not thy Holy Spirit from me Ps. li. 11., and again, Thy good Spirit shall lead me in the land of righteousness Ps. cxliii. 10..  And as we have it in Chronicles, Azariah 2 Chron. xv. 1., in the time of King Asa, and Jahaziel Ib. xx. 14. in the time of King Jehoshaphat, partook of the Holy Ghost; and again, another Azariah, he who was stoned Ib. xxiv. 20, 21..  And Ezra says, Thou gavest also Thy good Spirit to instruct them Neh. ix. 20.  Ezra and Nehemiah form one book “Ezra” in the Hebrew Canon..  But as touching Elias who was taken up, and Elisseus, those inspired πνευματοφόρων, used only twice in the Sept. (Hosea ix. 7; Zeph. iii. 4), and in an unfavourable sense.  With Cyril’s use of it compare Theophilus, Ad Autolyc. ii. 9:  Θεοῦ ἀνθρώπους πνευματοφόρους Πνεύματος ἁγίου. and wonder-working men, it is manifest, without our saying so, that they were full of the Holy Ghost.
