Translation

Meaning he did not, by his love for mankind, prevent the punishment; rather, he gave a place for righteous upbringing. "He made a path for his own1 anger."

Greek original · Adler’s text

Ὡδοποίησεν· ἀντὶ τοῦ οὐκ ἐκώλυσε τῇ φιλανθρωπίᾳ τὴν τιμωρίαν, ἀλλ' ἔδωκε χώραν τῇ δικαίᾳ παιδείᾳ. ὡδοποίησε τρίβον τῇ ὀργῇ αὐτοῦ.

Notes (1)

  1. The comment of Theodoret, PG 80.1496b, on Psalm 77.50 LXX: God and the plagues of Egypt. The headword is aorist of o(doipoie/w, third person singular: LSJ entry at web address 1.
  2. 1The Suda has au)tou= "his anger" (someone else's) but the sense seems to require the reflexive au(tou= (his own anger). ↩
