What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Jerome
For it is a day of slaughter and treading down, and of weeping from the Lord God of hosts in the valley of vision, searching the wall, and magnifying upon the mountain. LXX: For it is a day of tumult, and of destruction, and of treading down, and of error from the Lord God of hosts in the valley of Zion; they wander about from the least to the greatest: they are wandering upon the mountains. …
Thomas Aquinas
Third, he sets out the manner and order of punishment: a day of slaughter, and concerning this, he sets out three things. First, the indignation of God: a day of slaughter is imminent; searching, making it to be searched by the enemy; magnificent, making the enemy magnificent: for they trusted in mountains and walls: at that time, I will search Jerusalem with lamps, and will visit upon the men that are settled on their lees (Zeph 1:12).
