What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Thomas Aquinas
And the king of the Assyrians sent Rabsaces. Here he shows how Assyria offended the Jews by threatening them through messengers. And first, the meeting of the messengers is set out; second, their discussion: and Rabsaces said to them (Isa 36:4); third, their departure from each other: and Eliacim went in (Isa 36:22). Concerning the first, he does two things. First, the messenger of the Assyrians is described: Rabsaces, whom some say was the son of Isaiah, others a Samaritan; by the conduit, about which, see above (Isa 7:3).
