Primasius of Hadrumetum, on Rev 7:13

Primasius of Hadrumetum · d. A.D. 553

Rev 7:13 · Douay-Rheims

“And one of the ancients answered, and said to me: These that are clothed in white robes, who are they? and whence came they?”

On this verse:

“This one elder represents either the body of the prophets or the church. It depicts the leaders teaching the other members of the future reward for which the laborers might hope, just as the apostle spoke of the gospel, "In it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith," that is, from the faith of those who preach, for the faith of those who hear.”
