ACC ~ 1 Peter 1 v11

THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST WITHIN THEM. CLEMENT OF ALEXANDRIA: Here is it stated that the prophets spoke with wisdom and that the Spirit of God was in them because they belonged and were subject to Christ. For the Lord works through archangels and their associate angels, who are called the spirit of Christ. ADUMBRATIONS.

PROPHETS PREDICTED THE INCARNATION. ANDREAS: The apostle insists that the one who spoke by the prophets was the Holy Spirit of Christ. Nor was Christ a mere man, as the heretics say, but he was the incarnate Son of God, consubstantial with the Father. “Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.” … For this reason the Savior said: “Many prophets and righteous men desired to see what you are seeing, and they did not see it.” CATENA.

THE SUBSEQUENT GLORY. BEDE: Christ has already been glorified twice, once in his resurrection from the dead and again in his ascension into heaven. There will also be a third time, when he comes again in his majesty, as well as in that of the Father and the holy angels, to judge each of us according to our works. ON 1 PETER.

THEY PREDICTED HIS SUFFERINGS. OECUMENIUS: The Spirit of Christ predicted his sufferings to Isaiah: “He was led like a sheep to the slaughter,” and he predicted the resurrection to Hosea: “On the third day we shall be raised up before him, and we shall go on to know the Lord, and we shall find him like the ready morning.” COMMENTARY ON 1 PETER.
