Gregory of Nyssa
“For when it speaks of “sons of men,” or “sons of rams,” it marks the essential relation of that which is begotten to that from which it has its being: but when it speaks of “sons of power,” or “children of God,” it presents to us that kinship which is the result of choice.” — editor's note: Ps. xxix. 1 (LXX.).

“Again, in the Psalms, David says: “Bring to God, ye countries of the nations”—undoubtedly because “unto every land” the preaching of the apostles had to “go out”—“bring to God fame and honour; bring to God the sacrifices of His name: take up victims and enter into His courts.”” — editor's note: See Ps. xcvi. (xcv. in LXX.) 7, 8; and comp. xxix. (xxviii. in LXX.) 1, 2.
