Isaiah 1:3
Douay-Rheims
The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master’s crib: but Israel hath not known me, and my people hath not understood.
Ambrose of Milan
What is more evident than that it is said of the passion of the Lord: "The ox knows his owner and the donkey his master's crib." Let us, then, know the Lord's crib where we are nourished, fed and refreshed.
