From the Discourse of St. Hippolytus on the beginning of Isaiah.12791279    [Theodoret, in his First Dialogue.]

Under Egypt he meant the world, and under things made with hands its idolatry, and under the shaking its subversion and dissolution. 12801280    The text is evidently corrupt: Κύριον δὲ τὸν Λόγον, νεφέλην δὲ κούφην τὸ καθαρώτατον σκῆνος, etc. The reference must be to ch. xix. 1.And the Lord, the Word, he represented as upon a light cloud, referring to that most pure tabernacle, in which setting up His throne, our Lord Jesus Christ came into the world to shake error.
