Athanasius of Alexandria, on Ps 9:13

Athanasius of Alexandria · c. A.D. 296–373
Ps 9:13 · Douay-Rheims
“For requiring their blood he hath remembered the: he hath not forgotten the cry of the poor.”
On this verse:
“The Lord does not forget the cry of the poor, and especially of those who in the spirit ask of him vengeance for wrongs brought against them by demons. Those who pray that there may arise a Savior for those on earth in order to repress the second tyrannical man who waxed strong against us and to impose on us the spiritual law of the gospel, from which people who are rational may learn, no more to imitate senseless animals. They are also hastening to his coming, hoping for salvation.”
