Pseudo-Chrysostom, on Mark 1:12
Mark 1:12 · Douay-Rheims
“And immediately the Spirit drove him out into the desert.”
On this verse:
“(Vict. Ant. e Cat. in Marc.) But He says this to shew of what nature was the wilderness, for it was impassable by man and full of wild beasts. It goes on; and angels ministered unto him. For after temptation, and a victory against the devil, He worked the salvation of man. And thus the Apostle says, Angels are sent to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation. (Heb. 1:14) We must also observe, that to those who conquer in temptation angels stand near and minister.”
