Church Fathers on Romans 11:9

“Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumbling-block.” Psalm 69:22-23 That is, let their comforts and all their good things change and perish, and let them be open to attack from any one. And to show that this is in punishment for sins that they suffer this, he adds, “and a recompense unto them.”
