Jerome — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Matthew 15:29-31

Patristic A.D. 420
Jerome · c. A.D. 347–420
“What the Latin translator calls ‘debiles’ (maimed), is in the Greek χυλλοὺς which is not a general term for a maimed person, but a peculiar species, as he that is lame in one foot is called ‘claudus,’ so he that is crippled in one hand is called χυλλός.”
