Haydock's commentary

And beauty, that all may be filled with awe, and adore the majesty of God. (Calmet)

Our priestly vestments, which are objects of derision to the ignorant, are made so rich and beautiful for the same purpose. They have the sanction of God, by a parity of reason; and the authority of his church. (Haydock)
