What the Fathers say
Western Saints
Augustine of Hippo
"My foot has stood in uprightness." My Love has not withdrawn from Your righteousness. "In the Churches I will bless You, O Lord" [Psalm 26:12]. I will not hide Your blessing, O Lord, from those whom You have called; for next to the love of You I join the love of my neighbour.
Thomas Aquinas
Here is set forth the reason why he asks this; and it is twofold. One is from the past, which is the rectitude of life; hence he says, "My foot," that is, my affection or my progress, "has stood in the right path." Likewise, concerning the future, "I propose always to serve you"; hence he says, "In the churches I will bless you, O Lord," that is, before many: Ps. 39: "I have announced your justice in the great church." And he says in the plural, on account of the multitude of particular churches, as it is said in Rev. 3.
