For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man sees, why does he yet hope for?
All Commentaries on Romans 8:24 Go To Romans 8
Cyprian of Carthage
AD 258
For we are not following after present glory, but future, according to what Paul the apostle also warns us, and says, "We are saved by hope; but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he hope for? But if we hope for that which we see not, then do we by patience wait for it."
