What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Jerome
Therefore, listen to these things, poor and drunken one, not from wine. This is what your Lord and your God says, who fought for his people: Behold, I have taken from your hand the cup of slumber, the bottom of the cup of my indignation; you shall not add to drink it any further. And I will place it in the hand of those who humbled you, and they said to your soul: Bow down, that we may pass over, and you have made your body like the ground, and like a road to those passing by. …
Thomas Aquinas
939. Therefore. Here he promises liberation; and concerning this, he sets out two things: first, their liberation: you that are drunk but not with wine, but with the bitterness of your punishments: he has filled me with bitterness, he has inebriated me with wormwood (Lam 3:15).
