Commentary on Isaiah
Pseudo-Cyprian
Moreover, in the same [Gospel] he also says, "All who have come before are thieves and robbers." Who are such but the deserters of the faith and the transgressors of God's church, who strive against God's ordinance—whom the Holy Spirit rightly rebukes by the prophet, saying, "You have taken counsel, but not by me; and have made a confederacy, but not by my Spirit, to add sin to sin."
