Cyril of Jerusalem, on 2Sam 23:2
Cyril of Jerusalem · A.D. 313–386
2Sam 23:2 · Douay-Rheims
“The spirit of the Lord hath spoken by me and his word by my tongue.”
On this verse:
“In Moses' day the Spirit was given by the imposition of hands; and Peter imparted the Spirit by the imposition of hands. Upon you also, who are to be baptized, the grace will come. In what manner I do not say, for I do not anticipate the proper time.… We learn clearly in the book of Kings [Samuel], of Samuel and David, how by the Holy Spirit they prophesied and were leaders of the prophets. Samuel in fact was called the "seer." David says plainly: "The spirit of the Lord has spoken by me;" and in the psalms: "and do not take your holy spirit from me;" and again: "May your good spirit guide me on level ground."”
