Augustine of Hippo, on Ezek 28:3
Augustine of Hippo · A.D. 354–430
Ezek 28:3 · Douay-Rheims
“Behold thou art wiser than Daniel: no secret is hid from thee.”
On this verse:
“Could we be better than Daniel himself, concerning whom the Lord said to the prince of Tyre by the prophet Ezekiel: "Are you wiser than Daniel?" He is unique in being included among the three just men whom God says he will deliver, doubtless showing three special types of just people, when he says he will so deliver them as not to deliver their sons with them, but they only shall be delivered: namely, Noah, Daniel and Job.”
