What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Jerome
The animals of the field will glorify me, the dragons and ostriches; for I have given waters in the wilderness, rivers in the desert, to give drink to my chosen people. I have formed this people for myself; they will proclaim my praise. LXX: The beasts of the field, the sirens, and the daughters of ostriches will bless me, for I have given water in the wilderness and rivers in the dry land, to make my chosen people, my acquired people, drink. They will declare my virtues. …
Thomas Aquinas
Second, he shows the usefulness of these benefits for the gentiles: the beast of the field shall glorify me, that is, the gentile, living like a beast, converted to Christ, or seeing how I liberated the Jews: beasts and all cattle: serpents and feathered fowls (Ps 148:10); and for the Jews: to give drink, of teaching and consolation: the Lord your God has chosen you (Deut 7:6).
