What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Jerome
In the multitude of your ways you have labored, and you have not said: I will rest. You have found life in your hands, therefore you did not ask me to be silent (Vulgate: you remain silent). LXX: In many journeys you have labored, and you have not said, I will cease: you have made these strengthen. Therefore, you did not ask me. He who walks in one royal path does not labor, as God commanded through Moses: You shall walk in the royal path and you shall not turn aside to the right or to the left (Deuteronomy 5:32). …
Thomas Aquinas
Second, as to eagerness to please, because they adorned themselves: and you have adorned yourself for the king with ointment, and have multiplied your perfumes, that is, using my incense for worshipping them: I have perfumed your bed with incense (Prov 7:17). Third, as to eagerness to invite: you have sent your messengers far off, for they brought in various idols even from far off lands, and thus you were debased even to hell, that is, to the depths of sin: she doted upon them (Ezek 23:16).
