Commentaries on the Prophet Ezekiel.

The last of the great Biblical commentators of the school of Antioch, Theodoret wrote works on all the prophets during his years as Bishop of Cyrus.  Though caught up in the theological currents in the period between the Church councils of Ephesus in 431 and Chalcedon in 451, he could claim in a letter late in that period to have commentated on "all the prophets, the psalter and the apostle."

Fortunately, all Theodoret's commentaries have survived, probably owing to his proverbial moderationthat attracted none of the hostility responsible for the loss of works of some of his Antiochene predecessors.  His style of commentary, the hermeneutics of his school and the distinctive Antioch text of the Old Testament are of particular interest to modern scholars and readers.

Volume Two includes a commentary on the Prophet Ezekiel.
