Nehemiah 2:5
Douay-Rheims
And I said to the king: If it seem good to the king, and if thy servant hath found favour in thy sight, that thou wouldst send me into Judea to the city of the sepulchre of my father, and I will build it.
Glossa Ordinaria
If it seem good, etc. Just as by Cyrus the first king of the Persians Christ is signified, etc., up to concerning which I have taken care to expound the prophet's whole sentence most fully, as I was able, in the book of times.
