Haydock's commentary
Egypt, through distress, chap viii. 13. (St. Jerome, ver. 6.) (Worthington)
Sua afforded no protection, and the country proved a grave to those who retired thither.
Unclean. The people observed these prescriptions, though they neglected the more important duties. Only some pious souls, like Tobias, Daniel, &c., refrained from such meats in exile. (Calmet)
Ezechiel (iv. 9.) foreshewed this by his bread. (St. Jerome)
