Luke 1:71 Douay-Rheims

Salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us:

Origen

c. A.D. 184–253 Patristic

Let us not suppose that this refers to our bodily enemies, but our ghostly. For the Lord Jesus came mighty in battle (Ps. 24:8) to destroy all our enemies, that He might deliver us from their snares and temptation.
