Psalm 23:8 Douay-Rheims

Who is this King of Glory? the Lord who is strong and mighty: the Lord mighty in battle.

Augustine of Hippo

A.D. 354–430 Patristic

"Who is this King of glory?" Mortal nature is awe-struck in wonder, and asks, "Who is this King of glory?" "The Lord strong and mighty." He whom you deemed weak and overwhelmed. "The Lord mighty in battle" [Psalm 24:8]. Handle the scars, and you will find them made whole, and human weakness restored to immortality. The glorifying of the Lord, which was owing to earth, where It warred with death, has been paid.
