What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Gregory the Dialogist
Ver. 32. He shall be brought to the graves, and in the heap of the dead bodies he shall watch. 70. Whereas graves cover dead bodies, what else is denoted by 'the graves' but the lost, in whom their souls extinct of the life of blessedness lie as in graves? …
Thomas Aquinas
So he concludes that this day of perdition and the fury previously mentioned is not in this life but after death, for he then says, "He himself will be led to the grave," after he has died. Yet he will live in his soul, and he then expresses this saying, "and he will keep vigil in the gathering of the dead," because although he seems to sleep by the death of his body, he will still keep vigil through the life of his soul.
