Beyond the traditional exegesis, this commentary is characterised by its uncommon interpretation of Isaiah’s “unclean lips” as the consequence of his sinful silence after Uzziah’s prevarication. Actually, this reading gives shape to the exegesis of the entire passage: on this background, the bishop of Cyrrhus describes the movement of conversion from confession to reparation, a movement at the end of which the purified sinner is able to assume a greater mission than before. The exegete also constructs an opposition between converted and hardened sinner (Uzziah or people). More discreetly, he shows how human freedom and divine action are articulated.
