Theodore of Mopsuestia, on Ps 30:5
Theodore of Mopsuestia · c. A.D. 350–428
Ps 30:5 · Douay-Rheims
“Thou wilt bring me out of this snare, which they have hidden for me: for thou art my protector.”
On this verse:
“Now, it is to be noted that the Lord cited this verse when on the cross, not that it was said of him in prophetic manner, as some commentators think, but because these words suited him when exposed to the risk of death and passion. So he cited this verse at the time when his soul was separated from his body, and [he] rightly entrusted it to the Father so that he might restore it to his body when it was in need of it at the time of the resurrection.”
