Cyril of Jerusalem, on Ps 18:5
Cyril of Jerusalem · A.D. 313–386
Ps 18:5 · Douay-Rheims
“Their sound hath gone forth into all the earth: and their words unto the ends of the world.”
On this verse:
“Consider the apt disposition of the sun, or rather of him whose ordering determined its course; how in summer it is higher in the heavens and makes the days longer, thereby giving people good time for their works, while in winter it contracts its course that the cold season might not be too long and that the nights, becoming longer, might serve as the repose of people and for the fruitfulness of the earth's products. See too how the days give way to each other in due order, lengthening in summer, growing shorter in winter, but in spring and autumn affording mutually equal intervals; and the nights likewise, so that the psalmist says, "Day pours out word to day, and night to night imparts knowledge." For to the heretics, who have no ears, they all but shout, and by their good order they say that there is no other God save their Creator, who fixed their bounds and laid out the universe.”
