What the Fathers say

Isaiah 25:11

Western Saints

Thomas Aquinas

591. Third, as to the oppression of their enemies, namely, the Moabites, who were most hostile to them because of dreams. And first, he sets out their affliction: threshed: they have threshed Galaad with iron wains (Amos 1:3); second, their complete subjection: he shall stretch forth his hands, as though prostrate and seeking mercy or help, below: they shall come (49). And the destruction of their fortifications: and the bulwarks, which are mentioned above (Isa 16:7).
