Does not both the reality and the title of His creative power belong to Him? Melchisedec is our witness, thus declaring God to be Creator of heaven and earth: \"Blessed be Abraham of God most high, Who created heaven and earth.\" The prophet Hosea also is witness, saying, \"I am the Lord thy God, that establish the heavens and create the earth, Whose hands have created all the host of heaven.\" Peter too is witness, writing thus, \"Committing your souls as to a faithful Creator.\" Why do we apply the name of the work to the Maker of that work? Why do we give the same name to God and to our fellowmen? He is our Creator, He is the Creator of all the heavenly host.<br/><i>— ON THE TRINITY 12:4</i></p><p><b>Jerome</b>: \"But I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.\" For this, in the Septuagint it is written: \"I am the Lord your God: who made firm the heaven, and created the earth: whose hands created all the hosts of heaven, and I did not show them to you, that you may walk after them ... And I brought you out of the land of Egypt.\" Since these words are not found in the Hebrew, and are not translated by any interpreter, they are marked with an obelus in the ancient version of the Septuagint: especially since their meaning is clear. So let us move on to the rest, joining the following to the previous chapter.<br/><i>— Commentary on Hosea 13:4</i></p>","source_html_sha256":"46447171e18865b0e46dc3bba84fadd27e45d8c8b98e3b2eb7904a103d6fb1c1","source_module":"ECF","source_row_id":6808,"source_url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/commentary/ecf/","text_sha256":"e76bbdf6fbd3cb54da84c964b93577dc13fbd54a44394b741fa1acaf1beb710a","translator":null,"work":null}
