so too is day. And speech is the Lord, and he too is called day in many ways. “And night to night proclaims knowledge.” The devil knew that the Lord would come, but did not know whether Jesus was he; that is why he tempted him, to know whether he was powerful. … it says, “And he departed from him for a time,” that is, he postponed the discovery until the resurrection. For he knew that this was the Lord who would rise. Likewise the demons, since they suspected that Solomon was the Lord, but knew that he was not when he sinned. “Night to night”: all the demons knew that the one who rose after the passion was the Lord. And already Enoch says that the angels who transgressed taught human beings astronomy, divination, and the other arts.⁠a
