What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Augustine of Hippo
Let them be silent, therefore, and now let them see to which God the faithful pray and say: O God, who is like you? Be not silent, nor be still, O God. This I had taken how, be not still, not by overturning men but errors. He is not still, therefore He is angry. But He is God, therefore He also has mercy. He is angry and has mercy. He is angry to strike down, has mercy to heal. He is angry to kill, has mercy to make live. He does this in one man. …
Jerome
O God, who shall be like you? None shall be like you. Do not keep silent, nor be restrained, O God. It is a man of the Church who speaks, from whose belly flow rivers of living water. For he sees that the harvest is great and the laborers few: a vast multitude of believers, and only a modest teaching from the masters; many heretics, many adversaries, and few warriors to do battle for Christ. Do not keep silent, nor be restrained, O God. Why this?
