Oecumenius, on Acts 1:3
Oecumenius · c. A.D. 550
Acts 1:3 · Douay-Rheims
“To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion, by many proofs, for forty days appearing to them, and speaking of the kingdom of God.”
On this verse:
“He said it was forty days, not in consecutive days; for he did not spend time with them continuously, as before the passion, but intermittently, at once preparing for them a more longing appearance of himself, and at the same time revealing a more exalted and divine appearance of himself.”
