Ambrosiaster, on 2Cor 4:4

“In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of unbelievers, that the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not shine unto them.”

“The God of this world is said of the worldly-minded, because they, being hostile to the faith of Christ, blind the minds of infidels, so that they do not see the truth of the glorious gospel of Christ. Therefore, this is what they desire. For since they are malicious people and understand the truth, they say it is false, and in doing so, they assist themselves, in order that they may not believe what they do not want to believe. However, they assert that Christ, being the image of God, is only corporeal: and leaving aside his deeds, they only mention his flesh, of which Isaiah said: He has blinded their eyes, so that they may not see; and he has closed their ears, so that they may not hear up to this very day (Isaiah 6:10).”
