Cyril of Alexandria
Translated with an Introduction by Robert Charles Hill
Volume III of Commentary on Isaiah
“Console, console my people, says God. Priests, speak to the heart of Jerusalem. Console her, because her humbling has been accomplished. Her sin has been remitted, because she received from the hand of the Lord double punishment for her transgression (vv.1–2). The discourse is directed to the things in Christ, and now makes a clear proclamation of the grace coming through him. Yet it is not seen to be departing from the theme, nor is it introduced out of context. Some people, in fact, who are not closely attentive to the contents of the divine Scripture may ask, In what way does the prophet in a treatment of Hezekiah provide us with a prophecy related to Christ? In rebutting this objection we shall reply as follows: after reporting the final capture of the land of the Jews and Jerusalem itself, the text then in timely and appropriate manner introduced the consolation that later came from God.”
