What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Gregory the Dialogist
I know that Thou wilt deliver me to death, where is the house appointed for all living. In the preceding part of this work the point was treated of, that before the Coming of the Lord even the righteous did descend to the abodes of hell, though they were kept not in woes but in rest. …
Thomas Aquinas
He proves that he did not say this in despair saying, "I know that you will hand me over to death," as if to say: I do not suffer these things as though they were not planned, for I know that I will go to a still further defect, death. He says that he knows this because of the condition of mortal life, "where the house of every living thing has been built," since all men tend to death as a man does to his house.
