Gregory the Great, on Job 11:17
Gregory the Great · c. A.D. 540–604
Job 11:17 · Douay-Rheims
“And brightness like that of the noonday, shall arise to thee at evening: and when thou shalt think thyself consumed, thou shalt rise as the day star.”
On this verse:
“And the noonday splendour shall rise to thee at eventide. For 'the noonday splendour at eventide' is the renewing of virtue in the season of temptation, that the soul should be reinvigorated by the sudden heat of charity, which but now was full of fear, that the light of grace had sunk to it.”
