Augustine of Hippo, on 1Cor 15:26

“And the enemy death shall be destroyed last: For he hath put all things under his feet. And whereas he saith,”

“It is one thing to fight well, which is the case now when the struggle of death is resisted. It is something else not to have an adversary, which will be the case when death "our last enemy" is destroyed.”
