Have you not known? have you not heard? has it not been told you from the beginning? have you not understood from the foundations of the earth?
All Commentaries on Isaiah 40:21 Go To Isaiah 40
Cyril of Alexandria
AD 444
The divinely inspired Scripture was not silent. For the knowledge of the truth from above was veiled through the patriarchs, through the law and the prophets. But this was not the case when the only-begotten Word of God came among us as a man to illuminate those on the earth. This was the last days when the leader of those who oppose spiritual deception came. It was the first of the attacks on idolatry. For the choir of the saints never stops attacking such deception, showing how loathsome it is while at the same time making known the [true] Maker and Lord of the universe.
