John Chrysostom — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on John 11:47-53

Patristic A.D. 407
John Chrysostom · A.D. 347–407
“(Hom. lxv. 1) See the great virtue of the Holy Spirit, in drawing forth a prophecy from a wicked man. And see too the virtue of the pontifical office, which made him, though an unworthy High Priest, unconsciously prophesy. Divine grace only used his mouth; it touched not his corrupt heart.”
