Hilary of Poitiers — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on John 5:19-20

Patristic A.D. 367
Hilary of Poitiers · c. A.D. 310–367
“(vii. de Trin. c. 19) Nor did the heavenly discourse lack the caution, to guard against our inferring from these words any difference in the nature of the Son and the Father. For He says that the works of the Father were shewn to Him, not that strength was supplied Him for the doing of them, in order to teach that this shewing is substantially nothing else than His birth; for that simultaneously with the Son Himself is born the Son’s knowledge of the works the Father will do through Him.”
