Wisdom of Solomon 3:2

In the sight of the unwise they seemed to die: and their departure is taken for misery,
All Commentaries on Wisdom of Solomon 3:2 Go To Wisdom of Solomon 3

Augustine of Hippo

AD 430
"In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died, and their end was thought to be a punishment." "Malice," in Latin, does not ordinarily have the same meaning that it has in the language used in sacred Scripture. In fact, in Latin one usually calls "malice" that which makes human beings wicked. In the language of the Scripture, however, by "malice" is also meant the evil suffered by human beings. In this passage, therefore, the term should be understood in the sense of "punishment."
