Cyril of Alexandria, on Ps 80:9

Cyril of Alexandria · A.D. 376–444
Ps 80:9 · Douay-Rheims
“Hear, O my people, and I will testify to thee: O Israel, if thou wilt hearken to me,”
On this verse:
“Who, then, is this one cast down from his divine preeminence and removed from the limitations of creation? The matter is completely inconceivable, and there is no discernible place or manner of speaking of someone in between creator and creation. Although they dislodged him from the throne of divinity, they have arrived at a point in their teaching that they call him the Son and God and think that he is to be adored although the law openly proclaims, "The Lord your God shall you worship and him only shall you serve," and although God said to the Israelites through the voice of David, "There shall be no new god among you, nor shall you adore a foreign god."”
