Testimonies

Testimonium Domini fidele, sapientiam praestans parvulis Hic de Patre dicit: quoniam omnia testimonia quae dedit populo Israelitico, fidelia iitique fucruni, quia plenissima veritate recognita sunt : et sapientiam parvulis praestiterunt, non utique superbis, nec tumida se elatione jactantibus, sed purvulis. Parvuli autem sunl humiles et innocentes, sicut Aposlolus monet: Nolite pueri effici sensibus, sed malitia parvuli estote. Testimonium quoque dat Filius, sicut ad Timotheum ait Apostolus: Praecipio tibi coram Deo , qui vivificat omnia, et Christo Jesu, qui testimonium reddidit syb Pontio Pilato. Idem de Spiritu Sancto dicit Apostolus: Nam et ipse Spiritus testimonum perhibet spiritui nostro. Vides in illa sancta Trinitate, quam nihil Scriptura divina velit minus majusvc sentiri, ut nec ipsa nomina patiatur esse divisa. Cassiodorus, Expositio In Psalterium, Psalmus XVIII Source: Migne PL 70.140c-d

The testimony of the Lord is faithful, giving wisdom to little ones. 1 Here he speaks of the Father, because every testimony which He gave to the people of Israel was faithful, since they were understood as being full with truth, and they gave wisdom to little ones, but not to the proud and the puffed up and those elated with boasting, but to little ones. And these little ones are the humble and the innocent, as the Apostle admonishes, 'Do not be childish in your understanding, but be little ones in wickedness.' 2 The Son also gives testimony, as the Apostle says to Timothy, 'I command you before God, who gives life to all things, and before Jesus Christ, who gave testimony under Pontius Pilate.' 3 The Apostle says the same about the Holy Spirit, 'For even the Spirit Himself gives testimony to our spirit.' 4 See the Holy Trinity in these things which nothing more or less Sacred Scripture wishes to be understood, so that it does not suffer it to be divided with these names.
