Clement of Alexandria, on 1Pet 3:12
Clement of Alexandria · c. A.D. 150–215
1Pet 3:12 · Douay-Rheims
“Because the eyes of the Lord are upon the just, and his ears unto their prayers: but the countenance of the Lord upon them that do evil things.”
On this verse:
“"For the eyes of the Lord," he says, "are upon the righteous, and His ears on their prayers:" he means the manifold inspection of the Holy Spirit. "The face of the Lord is on them that do evil;" that is, whether judgment, or vengeance, or manifestation.”
