What the Fathers say
Eastern Fathers
John Chrysostom
"Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as He did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God?" He shows that he had himself done nothing: for the very thing which we have obtained, he says, that same did those men receive. …
Theophylact of Ohrid
What we had, he says, they also received, for "God gave them the same gift as He gave to us." To shut their mouths, he says: "as to us." God does not allow, he says, that they should have less, if He gave an equal gift to those who believed. And he does not say "as to you," but "as to us." What do you find unworthy, when we call them partakers?
