Ishodad of Merv, on Isa 56:10
Ishodad of Merv · d. A.D. 850
Isa 56:10 · Douay-Rheims
“His watchmen are all blind, they are all ignorant: dumb dogs not able to bark, seeing vain things, sleeping and loving dreams.”
On this verse:
“"They are all stammering dogs" who stutter the praise of God and "cannot bark" against the idols, as against strangers. "They dream, lay down and love to slumber," that is, they love to sleep in the graves and in the places where sacrifices are offered to demons, and there they expect from them visions, dreams and ghosts.”
