George Leo Haydock

I. Hebrew, “But I believe that I shall see.” (St. Jerome) — “I had fainted, unless,” &c. (Protestants) (Haydock) — Living, or of promise, as this country is often designated, (Muis; Tirinus; Du Pin; Calmet) or rather in heaven, (Berthier; Menochius) where death shall be no more. (Haydock) — The Fathers explain it in this more elevated sense. (Calmet) — The just are comforted by God, and by the hope of heavenly rewards. (Worthington) — The land of the living may be opposed to the grave, where none can worship God. (Haydock)
