What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Jerome
Is this not yours, which boasted in its ancient days? Tyre, pride, has been rebuked because it boasted in its ancient state and did not look to God. Instead, it remembered the names of its ancestors, thinking itself eternal. He led her two hundred feet away for a pilgrimage. He says this to those who remained in the city, and the captives were led to Babylon.
Thomas Aquinas
Second, the ignominy of those who remain: is this not; and concerning this, he does two things. First, he foretells their ignominy, recalling first their former glory: is not this yours, namely, your city? Her feet shall carry her afar off, as to those taken captive: my delicate ones have walked rough ways (Bar 4:26).
