Orthodox 1107
“Or else Christ sleeps, that is, ascends into heaven, where, though He seem to sleep, yet He rises by night, when through temptations He raises us up to the knowledge of Himself; and in the day time, when on account of our prayers, He sets in order our salvation.”
Catena Aurea: Gospel of Mark, as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Mark 4:26-29
