Thomas Aquinas, on Job 21:5

Thomas Aquinas · 1225–1274
Job 21:5 · Douay-Rheims
“Hearken to me and be astonished, and lay your finger on your mouth.”
On this verse:
“Since this disputation is about a great matter, one should listen attentively, and so he says, "Pay attention to me." It should also not be listened to lightly or with scorn, but more with dignity and with amazement, and so he says, "Be astonished." It should also be heard in silence and without murmuring, and so he says, "and put your finger over your mouth."”
