Basil of Caesarea — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Luke 9:32-36

Patristic A.D. 379
Basil of Caesarea · c. A.D. 330–379
“(in Esai. c. 4. 5.) For the obscurity of the Law had passed away; for as smoke is caused by the fire, so the cloud by light; but because a cloud is the sign of calmness, the rest of the future state is signified by the covering of a cloud.”
