A Sermon of St Augustine on the Title of Psalm 33: II

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  30 August 2024

Extract

He sent away this Jewish people and went off. Look for Christ nowadays among the Jews, and you won't find him. What did he send them away for? Because he changed his features. You see, they would stick to the sacrifice after the fashion of Aaron, so they missed the sacrifice after the fashion of Melchisedech. They lost Christ, and the gentiles began to possess him, although he had not sent them any warning in advance. He had sent the Jews plenty of warning, through David himself, through Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, through Isaias, Jeremias and the other prophets, and a few of them did recognize him as a result—few, that is, compared to the number that failed to and were lost.
