Augustine of Hippo, on Ezek 36:27

Augustine of Hippo · A.D. 354–430
Ezek 36:27 · Douay-Rheims
“And I will put my spirit in the midst of you: and I will cause you to walk in my commandments, and to keep my judgments, and do them.”
On this verse:
“God promises that he will cause them to do those things that he commands to be done. Nor indeed does he here overlook the merits, but rather the evil deeds, of those to whom he shows that he will return good things for evil, by the very fact that he causes them to have good works from that point on, when he causes them to carry out the divine commands.”
