Athanasius of Alexandria — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Luke 4:31-37

Patristic A.D. 373
Athanasius of Alexandria · c. A.D. 296–373
“(ad Epise. Æg. et Lib.) He spoke of Him not as a Holy One of God, as if He were like to the other saints, but as being in a remarkable manner the Holy One, with the addition of the article. For He is by nature holy by partaking of whom all others are called holy. Nor again did He speak this as if He knew it, but He pretended to know it.”
