For the Latin interpreter would not make a circumlocution by saying, to give you understanding, if, as we say from health, \"to heal you,\" so one could say from intellect, \"to intellectuate you.\" But if an angel could do this, what reason is there that this man should pray that this be done for him by God? Is it because God had commanded the angel to do it? Just so: for Christ is understood to have given this command to the angel.<br/><i>— EXPLANATIONS OF THE Psalms 119:73</i></p><p><b>Jerome</b>: Verse 14. \"And I have come to teach thee what things shall befall thy people in the last days.\" The very petition which Daniel had requested is the thing which he deserves to hear from God, namely what is going to happen to the people of Israel, not in the near future, but in the last days, that is, at the end of the world.<br/><i>— St. Jerome, Commentary on Daniel, CHAPTER TEN</i></p>","source_html_sha256":"9b3d3a582cab41c404636004a78c4665bf2984f18368ddae0f994c32f8226b8f","source_module":"ECF","source_row_id":3538,"source_url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/commentary/ecf/","text_sha256":"244fe343a8bcbf8fbc71553e4310b018cccae53bb9f31c216031ec369f256bf9","translator":null,"work":null}
