Rabanus Maurus, on Matt 11:20

Rabanus Maurus · c. A.D. 780–856
Matt 11:20 · Douay-Rheims
“Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein were done the most of his miracles, for that they had not done penance.”
On this verse:
“Corozaim, which is interpreted ‘my mystery,’ and Bethsaida, ‘the house of fruits’ or, ‘the house of hunters,’ are towns of Galilee situated on the shore of the sea of Galilee. The Lord therefore mourns for towns which once had the mystery of God, and which ought to have brought forth the fruit of virtues, and into which spiritual hunters had been sent.”
