Church Fathers on Matthew 11:27

Because He had said, 'I confess unto thee, Father, because thou hast hid these things from the wise,' that you should not suppose that He thus thanks the Father as though He Himself was excluded from this power, He adds, 'All things are committed to me by my Father.' Hearing the words are committed, do not admit suspicion of any thing human, for He uses this word that you may not think there be two gods unbegotten. For at the time that He was begotten He was Lord of all.

Chrysostom · 4th century

For if we conceive of this thing according to our weakness, when he who receives begins to have, he who gives begins to be without.

Jerome · 4th century

Or that we may not think that there is any thing less in Him than in God, therefore He says this.
