Θεοδωρήτου. Διὰ τοῦτο δὲ Θεὸν ἐλπίδος τὸν Θεὸν προσαγορεύει, ὡς ἄνωθεν μὲν δεδωκότα τοῖς ἔθνεσι τὴν ἐλπίδα τῆς εὐλογίας, τοῖς ἔργοις δὲ, τὴν ὑπόσχεσιν βεβαιώσαντα. τοῦτο δὲ τῶν ἐλπιζομένων ἔστιν ἐνέχυρον ἀγαθῶν. ὁ γὰρ ἐκεῖνα ὑποσχόμενος, εἶτα πληρώσας, πληρώσει πάντως καὶ ἃ νῦν ἡμῖν ἐπηγγείλατο. κελεύει δὲ ἡμᾶς οὐ μόνον ἐλπίζειν, ἀλλὰ καὶ περισσεύειν ἐν τῇ ἐλπίδι. τουτέστιν, εἰλικρινῶς ἐλπίζειν, καὶ νομίζειν ὁρᾶν τὰ ἐλπιζόμενα ἀγαθά. τοῦτο δὲ ἔφη παρέχειν τὴν τοῦ Πνεύματος χάριν.
