What the Fathers say
Eastern Fathers
Theophylact of Ohrid
He shows that those who have spiritual ears must understand these things in a spiritual sense. For many have ears but do not use them for hearing. This is why He added, "He who hath ears to hear, let him hear."
Western Saints
Jerome
He who has ears to hear, let him hear. We are prompted to understand these sayings whenever we are moved by these words.
Gregory the Dialogist
Remember what is said: If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear. For all who were present there had bodily ears. But he who says to all having ears, If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear, without doubt seeks the ears of the heart. Take care therefore that the word received remains in the ear of the heart.
Thomas Aquinas
And because this was said parabolically, he therefore adds, he who has ears to hear, namely, of the heart within, let him hear through understanding.
