What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Jerome
And it shall come to pass on that day, a man shall nurture a cow of oxen, and two sheep, and because of the abundance of milk, he shall eat butter; for everyone who is left in the midst of the land shall eat butter and honey. And it shall come to pass on that day, every place where a thousand vines were worth a thousand silver shekels, there shall be thorns and briers. With arrows and bows they shall come there, for thorns and briers shall cover the whole land. …
Thomas Aquinas
And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall nourish a young cow. Here he sets out the effect of the punishment, or the sign of destruction. First, in the scarcity of animals: a young cow, and two sheep, because the animals are few, above: and strangers shall eat the deserts turned into fruitfulness (Isa 5:17).
