What the Fathers say

Isaiah 14:25

Western Saints

Thomas Aquinas

Second, the place of destruction: in my land, for the army of Sennacherib was destroyed near Jerusalem, below: and the Lord of hosts shall make . . . in this mountain, a feast of fat things (Isa 25:6). Third, he describes the fruit of the punishment, his yoke shall be taken away from them, above: for the yoke of their burden, and the rod of their shoulder, and the scepter of their oppressor you have overcome (Isa 9:4).
