Gregory of Nyssa
“…with His power for ever,” while all things in the creation are servants to Him, according to the voice of the same prophet, which says “all things serve Thee,”) he, I say, who carefully considers these matters, surely cannot fail to recognize the person who makes the Only-begotten change from servitude to servitude.” — editor's note: Ps. cxix. 91.
Read the whole comment“For if the Holy Spirit does not lie, when He says by the prophet, ‘All things serve Thee,’ and the whole creation is in servitude, and the Son is, as you say, created, He is clearly a fellow-servant with all things, being degraded by His partaking of creation to partake also of servitude.” — editor's note: Ps. cxix. 91.
