“The Lord hath prepared his throne in heaven: and his kingdom shall rule over all.”

A.D.
Augustine of Hippo Patristic
A.D. 354–430
“"The Lord hath prepared His throne in heaven" (ver. 19). Who but Christ hath prepared His throne in heaven? He who descended and ascended, He who died, and rose from the dead, He who lifted up to heaven the manhood He had assumed, hath Himself prepared His throne in heaven. The throne is the seat of the Judge: observe therefore ye who hear, that "He hath prepared His throne in heaven." ...The kingdom is the Lord's, and He shall be the Governor among the people. "And His kingdom shall rule over all."”

The in-app commentary runs from the Fathers to the early-modern record, then stops — that's where the public-domain sources end, not where the reading does. For the modern reading, follow the sources directly.
