What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Jerome
Because the Lord has called you, a forsaken and grieving woman, with the Spirit: and said your God to the wife rejected from her youth. For a moment, in a small thing, I have forsaken you: and in great mercies, I will gather you. In a moment of anger, I have hidden my face from you for a little while: and in everlasting mercy, I have shown compassion to you, says your Redeemer, the Lord. LXX: The Lord did not call you a forsaken and timid woman, nor did your God say of you, a woman who is hated from her youth. …
Thomas Aquinas
And as to marriage: for the Lord has called you as a woman forsaken: if a man put away his wife, and she go from him, and marry another man, shall he return to her any more? (Jer 3:1).
