He says, \"He shall heal us after two days, and on the third day we shall rise again.\" This is the idea underlying the words of Paul [when he says], \"Therefore if you have risen in Christ, seek the things that are above.\"<br/><i>— CITY OF GOD 28</i></p><p><b>Caesarius of Arles</b>: The prince of this world did not want the Lord's army to recognize the engagement of those three days, as that engagement of which the prophet said, \"He will revive us after two days; on the third day he will raise us up.\" The first day for us is the passion of the Savior; the second day on which he descended into hell; but the third day is the day of the resurrection. So then on the third day God went before them in a pillar of cloud by day and by night in a pillar of fire, and the people were led through the Red Sea. The three days we can fittingly call the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, for the Father is a day, the Son is one, and the Holy Spirit is one, and these three are one.<br/><i>— SERMON 97:1</i></p><p><b>Cosmas Indicopleustes</b>: This is Hosea, the first of the twelve prophets who was privileged to speak concerning the Lord Christ in these terms: When they are afflicted, let them rise early to seek me saying, Come and let us return unto the Lord our God, for he hath smitten us and he will heal us; he that hath struck us will bind us up. After two days will he heal us. On the third day we shall be raised up again and we shall live! With reference to this passage the Apostle Paul says to the Corinthians: For I delivered unto you first of all that which also I received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures. For that he was buried, and that he was raised up on the third day according to the scriptures, is not to be found anywhere else.<br/><i>— The Christian Topography, Book 5</i></p><p><b>Cyril of Jerusalem</b>: A few of the Jews of that time were persuaded, but the world hearkened to the truth. Those who concealed the truth were buried in oblivion, but those who received it were made manifest by the power of the Savior, who rose from the dead and raised the dead himself. In the person of the risen dead the prophet Hosea says plainly, \"He will revive us after two days; on the third day he will raise us up, to live in his presence.\"<br/><i>— CATECHETICAL LECTURE 14:4</i></p><p><b>Origen of Alexandria</b>: Hear what the prophet says: \"God will revive us after two days, and on the third day we shall arise and live in his sight.\" The first day is the passion of the Savior for us. The second is the day on which he descended into hell. The third day is the day of resurrection. Therefore on the third day \"God went before them, by day in a column of cloud, by night in a column of fire.\" But if according to what we said above, the apostle teaches us rightly that the mysteries of baptism are contained in these words, it is necessary that \"those who are baptized in Christ are baptized in his death and are buried with him.\" [They must] also arise from the dead with him on the third day, according to what the apostle says, \"He raised up together with him and at the same time made them sit in the heavenly places.\" When, therefore, you shall have undertaken the mystery of the third day, God will begin to lead you and will himself show you the way of salvation.<br/><i>— HOMILIES ON Exodus 5</i></p>","source_html_sha256":"409a04d0d2fc9a475a4eb1a666efd1f90a26b62d5f859f612c2f244a0008c339","source_module":"ECF","source_row_id":6878,"source_url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/commentary/ecf/","text_sha256":"9900ecac859122099d1bc59daf65289679385b147521949a71419c83f196e965","translator":null,"work":null}
