Of which also the prophet Amos recalls: 'The Lord will roar from Zion, and from Jerusalem He shall give His voice' (Amos 1:2). And He will roar when He says: 'I will make you like Sodom.' And when He roars, then the sons of the sea, or of the waters, will tremble, as the LXX translated. For the word Maim, which is written with three letters Mem, Yod, Mem: if it is read Maim, it means 'waters'; if Mejam, it is understood as 'from the sea.' The Hebrews refer these things to the coming of Christ, whom they hope will come. \"We have now become convinced that from Egypt and Assyria, that is, from the East and the West, and from the North and the South, those who recline with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob have come, and come daily (Matthew 8). However, we can call the sons of the sea or the waters those who have been caught in the Lord's dragnet and taken from the sea of this world (Matthew 13:47). And when they have been taken from death to life, they will be placed in their own houses, which the Gospel calls granaries, in which selected and separated wheat is stored.\" (Matthew 13) It is said that it is the nature of lions that when they roar and roar, all animals tremble, and they cannot move with fixed steps: such is the terror and so great the fear. And so, when the Lord roars like a lion, and thunders, and gives his voice, all the birds and all flying things will tremble: and they will go to their nests, that is, to their homes where the Lord will dwell with them. Let us also say this differently: When a true lion roars, the false lion, who is our adversary according to the Apostle Peter, will immediately be silent, and he will not be able to open his perverse mouth to any doctrine: and those who were previously captured by him, loosened by the roar of the lion and terrible threats, will follow their Lord God. Then the sons of the sea or waters will fear, who were born in bitterness and salty waters of heretics; and having taken wings, they will fly like birds from Egypt and like doves from Assyrian land, and will say: \"Who will give me wings like doves, and I will fly and rest\"(Ps. LIV, 7)? So those who had labored among the heretics may rest in the Church and dwell in their homes from which they were seduced by error. Egypt, that is, we know as \"trouble\" and \"distress\"; likewise, concerning Assyrians, we recognize as \"leaders\" or, as we think better, \"accusers.\" Therefore, heretics will be freed from them when they start living in their own homes and say to their wicked parents, \"Your house will be left empty to you\" (Matt. 23).<br/><i>— Commentary on Hosea 11:10-11</i></p>","source_html_sha256":"b0d3e13631f364643eb50a3d21b6c237f2761f46d1581194f12bd20a481b1bc3","source_module":"ECF","source_row_id":6794,"source_url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/commentary/ecf/","text_sha256":"53080fae8368d8630611d8c8f751b51b7eee3d62c71457d50398809041df0b2d","translator":null,"work":null}
