George Leo Haydock

Hear. Hebrew with points, “publish.” (Berthier) — St. Jerome agrees with the Septuagint. — Thy praise. The former word is not expressed in the Vulgate or Hebrew, (Haydock) but it is understood; and occurs in some editions of the Septuagint, as well as in the Syriac. (Houbigant, &c.) — Worldlings come to the assemblies of the faithful, but often without piety or advantage. Priests themselves but too frequently dishonour the altar, which they serve. (Berthier) — If they were careful to perform their sacred duties well, (Haydock) and had a sincere love for the spouse of Christ, many profanations would be avoided; (Calmet) as God suffers no greater injury from any, than from bad ministers. (St. Gregory, &c.) (Haydock) — They ought to be recollected, and join mental with vocal prayer in their sacred offices. (Worthington)
