Salmos 22
Ambrose of Milan · Comentário Patrístico (catena)
Salmos 22:1
Seeing, then, that he took on himself a soul he also took the affections of a soul, for God could not have been distressed or have died in respect of his being God.… As being man, therefore, he speaks, bearing with him my terrors, for when we are in the midst of dangers we think ourself abandoned by God. As man, therefore, he is distressed, as man he weeps, as man he is crucified. — Exposition of the Christian Faith 2.7.56
Salmos 22:6
He became all these things so that he might dull the sting of our death, that he might take away our state of slavery, that he might wipe away our curses, sins and reproaches. — Letter 46: To Sabinus
Salmos 22:10
He and the Father are One, and the Father is his Father by possession of the same nature.… Speaking as the Son, he called God his father, and afterward, speaking as man, named him as God. Everywhere, indeed, we have witness in the Scriptures to show that Christ, in naming God as his God, does so as man. "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? And again: "From my mother's womb you are my God." In the former place he suffers as a man; in the latter it is a man who is brought forth from his mother's womb. And so when he says, "From my mother's womb you are my God," he means that he who was always his father is his God from the moment when he was brought forth from his mother's womb. — Exposition of the Christian Faith 1.14.91-92
Salmos 22:18
To God the things that are to come are present, and for him who foreknows all things, they are as though they were past and over; as it is written, "Who has made the things that are to be." — Exposition of the Christian Faith 1.15.97
Salmos 22:22
He is the Lord by nature but a brother by grace. — On the Blessings of the Patriarchs
