Thomas Aquinas, on Isa 26:8

“And in the way of thy judgments, O Lord, we have patiently waited for thee: thy name, and thy remembrance are the desire of the soul.”

“Second, the expectation of the afflicted, setting out three things: the expectation itself, in the way, that is, through the punishment, of your judgments, by which you vindicate and liberate us: your justifications I will never forget: for by them you have given me life (Ps 118[119]:93); the desire of those in expectation: your name: this is the name that they shall call him, the Lord our just one (Jer 33:16).”
