Haydock's commentary
Wandering. Sixtus V reads vagientes, (Calmet) "crying like children." (Haydock)
The ravens presently drive their young away to seek for fresh habitations. (Pliny, [Natural History?] x. 12.) (Psalm cxlvi. 9.) (Calmet)
If God provide for such creatures, He will shew still greater attention to man. (Worthington)
