EXPLANATION

Verse 4. In me, against the Church; nor shall I become as a thorn or brier in its regard; or march against it, or set it on fire: but it shall always take fast hold of me, and keep an everlasting peace with me. Challoner.—God rather speaks of the enemy. If he attempt to lay waste this vineyard, I will chastise him. Calmet.
