What the Fathers say

Isaiah 15:8

Western Saints

Jerome

Because the cry has gone around the territory of Moab, even to Eglaim its wailing, and even to Beer Elim its outcry. The same things are described by Jeremiah. And there are cities and places of the Moabites, where the cry and lamentation of the captive people are described.

Commentary on Isaiah ↗

Thomas Aquinas

Some of them were killed, and as to this he says: for the cry is gone round about, of those who weep, or of the Chaldean warriors.
