What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Augustine of Hippo
...Such children ought therefore to be "around" the Lord's "table, like olive-branches." A complete Vine it is, a great bliss: who would now refuse to be there? When thou seest any blasphemer have a wife, children, grandchildren, and thyself perchance without them, envy them not; discern that the promise hath been fulfilled in thee also, but spiritually. If therefore we have, why have we? Because we fear the Lord. "Lo, thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord" [Psalm 128:4]. …
Jerome
Behold, thus shall the man be blessed who fears the Lord. We have already spoken much, let us hasten to the end.
