What the Fathers say

Isaiah 37:22

Western Saints

Thomas Aquinas

First, he threatens the punishment of confusion for his contempt for the Jews: the virgin the daughter of Zion has despised you, when she refused to respond to you; will wag the head, in the future, when you flee with a few men, the others having been killed, above: you that despise, shall not yourself also be despised? (Isa 33:1). The just shall see, and shall rejoice, and the innocent shall laugh them to scorn (Job 22:19).
