Eusebius of Caesarea — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Luke 19:11-27

Patristic A.D. 339
Eusebius of Caesarea · c. A.D. 260–339
“There were some who thought that our Saviour’s kingdom would commence at His first coming, and they were expecting it shortly to appear when He was preparing to go up to Jerusalem; so astonished were they by the divine miracles which He did. He therefore informs them, that He should not receive the kingdom from His Father until He had left mankind to go to His Father.”
