Works Augustine of Hippo (354-430) Enarrationes in psalmos (CCEL) Expositions on the Book of Psalms
Psalm XXIV.

10.

"Who is this King of glory?" What! dost thou too, prince of the power of this air, 1 marvel and ask, "Who is this King of glory?" "The Lord of powers, He is the King of glory" (ver. 10). Yea, His Body now quickened, He who was tempted marches above thee; He who was tempted by the angel, the deceiver, goes above all angels. Let none of you put himself before us and stop our way, that he may be worshipped as a god by us: neither principality, nor angel, nor power, separateth us from the love of Christ. 2 It is good to trust in the Lord, rather than to trust in a prince; 3 that he who glorieth, should glory in the Lord. 4 These indeed are powers in the administration of this world, but "the Lord of powers, He is the King of glory."
