They were angry with their Lord in behalf of their idols, they who even if they were angry with their slave on their idol's account, were to be condemned. For their slave was better than their idol: for God made their slave, the carpenter made their idol. They were so angry in their idol's behalf, that they feared not to be angry with their Lord.
Augustine of Hippo — The Complete Works of Saint Augustine: The Confessions, On Grace and Free Will, The City of God, On
