What the Fathers say

Psalms 145:16

"Thou openest Thine Hand, and fillest every living thing with blessing" (ver. 16). Though sometimes Thou givest not, yet "in due season" Thou givest: Thou delayest, not deniest, and that in due season.

Bonaventure

This Hierarch is the most generous because He gives us whatever we ask. He swears to it and asserts it with complete truthfulness. Hence in the Psalm: "You open Your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing."
