Isaiah 49:5 Douay-Rheims

And now saith the Lord, that formed me from the womb to be his servant, that I may bring back Jacob unto him, and Israel will not be gathered together: and I am glorified in the eyes of the Lord, and my God is made my strength.

Francis Patrick Kenrick

1796–1863 Catholic

The negation was read by 8t. Jerome i is found in the margin of many MSS., which R. thinks is the correct reading, or at least the true meaning. Christ, according to the flesh, is servant of His Father, since He has taken on Him the form of a servant, in order to gather together the dispersed chil- dren of God.
