Homilies on Isaiah, Homilia V

Origen of Alexandria · c. 240–245 · Baehrens, Origenes Werke VIII = GCS 33 (1925) · Original English Translation

Who raised justice from the east?§1

1Isaiah already knows living Justice, not Paul alone: Christ is our righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. Who raised up justice from the east and called it to his feet? — the Father calling the Son from the true dawn. Worship at his footstool, for it is holy.

Latin · §1

Ait prophetes esse viventem iustitiam; Apostolus dicit Christum iustitiam et sanctificationem et redemptionem. Quis surgere fecit ab oriente iustitiam, vocavit eam ad pedes suos? Pater vocavit Filium — incarnationem — de oriente lucis verae. Adoramus scabellum pedum eius.

Vision of the Lord after Uzziah again§2

2Again: In the year King Uzziah died I saw the Lord seated on a high throne; the house was full of his glory. The same vision yields fresh sense beside Isaiah 41. Glory to Christ. Amen.

Latin · §2

Et factum est anno quo mortuus est Ozias rex, vidi Dominum sedentem supra thronum excelsum; et plena domus gloria eius. Visio iterum aliter exponitur. Gloria Christo. Amen.
