Cyril of Alexandria, on Isa 66:21

Cyril of Alexandria · A.D. 376–444
Isa 66:21 · Douay-Rheims
“And I will take of them to be priests, and Levites, saith the Lord.”
On this verse:
“"And I will take from them priests and Levites." From whom? This is not yet so clear, meaning either those sent to call them out from the nations or from those who were thus called out. For the divine disciples served through Christ as priests. But many were called to the priesthood, and many are still called who are of Greek stock, once God has changed them into the newness of life and knowledge.”
