Matthew 8:17
Douay-Rheims
That it might be fulfilled, which was spoken by the prophet Isaias, saying: He took our infirmities, and bore our diseases.
George Leo Haydock
In the Greek of the seventy-two interpreters, for infirmities we have amartias , sins; but the evangelist refers this to our bodily infirmities, because, as St. Chrysostom observes, diseases are the punishment of sins, and frequently arrive from the diseases of the soul. (Menochius) — The text of Isaias here quoted, regards the Messias literally. (Bible de Vence) — He took our infirmities. The words signify both the distempers of the body and the infirmities of the soul, for Christ cured both. (Witham)
