Hippolytus - On Isaiah
II.
From the Discourse of St. Hippolytus on the beginning of Isaiah. [1279]
Under Egypt he meant the world, and under things made with hands its idolatry, and under the shaking its subversion and dissolution. [1280] And the Lord, the Word, he represented as upon a light cloud, referring to that most pure tabernacle, in which setting up His throne, our Lord Jesus Christ came into the world to shake error.
