Cosmas Indicopleustes, on Isa 38:17

“Behold in peace is my bitterness most bitter: but thou best delivered my soul that it should not perish, thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.”

“And thou hast resuscitated my breath, and having been comforted by thee I lived. For thou didst rescue my soul that it might not perish, and thou hast cast behind me all my sins; meaning: For by comforting me Thou didst resuscitate my breath and I lived; having rallied my soul that was perishing, Thou hast cast my sins behind, and not suffered them to be spread out before me”
