Exposition of the Holy Gospel According to Saint Luke, with Fragments on the Prophecy of Esaias

Second Edition

Saint Ambrose of Milan
Translated by Theodosia Tomkinson

“[...T]hose who think that the shapes of the four living creatures which are revealed in the Apocalypse[...]are to be understood as the Four Books of the Gospel wish this Book to be represented in the form of a calf; for the calf is the Priestly victim. And this Book of the Gospel well befits a calf, because it begins with Priests and ends with the Calf Who, taking upon Himself the sins of all, was sacrificed for the life of the whole world[...]; so He was a Priestly Calf. For the same is both Calf and Priest: Priest, because He is our Propitiator—for we have Him as an Advocate with the Father[...]; Calf, because He redeemed us with His Own Blood[...].”
