For Christ has paid in full for us all things through which we were brought down into the corruption of death. And he paid this debt in full through opposites--disobedience through obedience, pleasure through a painful submission, and the hands which lay hold of the forbidden tree through those hands which were valiantly stretched out upon the cross. Oecumenius, Commentary on the Apocalypse 6.7

When the Lord knocks:
Here the Lord reveals his own peaceful and humble nature. The devil with axe and hammer smashes the doors of those who do not receive him, as the prophet said [Ps 73:6], but the Lord even now in the Song of Songs [5:2] says to the bride, "Open to me, my sister, my bride." And should someone open to him, he will come in, but if not, he goes away. Oecumenius, Commentary on the Apocalypse 3.14-22.
