[229] Thus he says: “And I stood between the Lord and you” (Deut. 5:5), where he does not mean that he stood firm upon his feet, but wishes to indicate that the mind of the Sage, released from storms and wars, with calm still weather and profound peace around it, is superior to men, but less than God.

For I am the harbinger of peace to creation from that God whose will is to bring wars to an end, who is ever the guardian of peace.”
