Bede the Venerable — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Luke 2:42-50

Patristic A.D. 735
Bede the Venerable · c. A.D. 672–735
“For from His tongue there went forth divine wisdom, while His age exhibited man’s helplessness, and hence the Jews, amid the high things they hear and the lowly things they see, are perplexed with doubts and astonishment. But we can in no wise wonder, knowing the words of the Prophet, that thus unto us a Child is born, that He abideth the mighty God. (Is. 9:6.)”
