Jerome, on Ps 2:6
Jerome · c. A.D. 347–420
Ps 2:6 · Douay-Rheims
“But I am appointed king by him over Sion his holy mountain, preaching his commandment.”
On this verse:
“The first four verses are spoken by a prophet or an angel wondering why human rashness had risen up against the Son of God. From the fifth verse, though, the Lord himself responds, exhorting the Gentiles and all the people from the Jews who are going to believe in him, so that they may loosen the binding chains and cast off the heavy burden of the law that their own ancestors were unable to carry, so they may follow him whose yoke is easy, and burden light.”
