If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land:
All Commentaries on Isaiah 1:19 Go To Isaiah 1
John Chrysostom
AD 407
Perhaps one will say, “I am willing (and no one is so void of understanding as not to be willing) but to will is not sufficient for me.” No, it is sufficient, if you be duly willing and do the deeds of one that is willing. But as it is, you are not greatly willing.…
[One] that wills a thing as he ought puts also his hand to the means which lead to the object of his desire.
