The fame of the Lord's preaching spoke even to the knowledge of the gentiles.<br/><i>— Commentary on Samuel</i></p><p><b>Gregory the Dialogist</b>: 8. Indeed the Philistines hear the sound of the land and the shouting of the camps, because those who in the holy Church have been refreshed by the cup of the Holy Spirit recognize both the talkativeness and the vain devotion of Jewish perfidy. And because they hold their estimation in the contempt of derision, it is added: (Vers. 6, 7.) And they recognized that the ark of the Lord had come into the camp, and the Philistines were afraid, saying: God has come into the camp, and they groaned. It is said ironically that the ark had come into the camp of the Hebrews, and that those falling by the cup were afraid and groaned, because for the conflict of the holy Church the sacraments of the old law are expounded carnally by the carnal defenders of the Synagogue. For they dispute about that which, if they understood according to the Spirit of God, they could have been truly terrible to their enemies, if they had any. Therefore when those falling by the cup are said to have been terrified and to have groaned, Scripture does not show the passions of minds in the holy preachers, but the mockery of Jewish disputation; which is known to be all the more contemptible and worthy of laughter, inasmuch as the Jewish people received a spiritual law from the Lord for spiritual conduct, and did not attend in the spirit to what they had received by the gift of the spirit. Wherefore, adding also the words of the same Jewish derision, they say: (Vers. 8.) Woe to us, there was not so great an exultation yesterday and the day before. And because they are to be more abundantly derided, they add saying: (Vers. 8.) Who will deliver us from the hand of these sublime gods?<br/><i>— Commentary on 1 Kings, Book 3, Chapter 2</i></p>","source_html_sha256":"126d3c02d12031c12446ff415539693bb824839adbfd6e2e2aa549ea1f9092c7","source_module":"ECF","source_row_id":1412,"source_url":"https://www.sermonindex.net/commentary/ecf/","text_sha256":"3a211fc24de8f793470ae92cb0c2bc2e90a2c1178c816ff7755c30990789bace","translator":null,"work":null}
