Hilary of Poitiers
Catena Aurea · Markusevangelium 1
The beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
(de Trin. iii. 11) He has testified, that Christ was the Son of God, not in name only, but by His own proper nature. We are the sons of God, but He is not a son as we are; for He is the very and proper Son, by origin, not by adoption; in truth, not in name; by birth, not by creation.
