John Chrysostom — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Matthew 12:14-21

Patristic A.D. 407
John Chrysostom · A.D. 347–407
“Further, to shew His lowliness, He says, He shall not strive; and so He was offered up as the Father had willed, and gave Himself willingly into the hands of His persecutors. Neither shall he cry; so He was dumb as a lamb before his shearer. Nor shall any hear voice in the streets.”
