Haydock's commentary
Detesteth. This expression does not always mean that the last is worse than the former. (Menochius)
All the six sins are damnable, but the seventh is here most so, being against charity and unity, and the devil's sin. (Worthington)
Lying seems to be reprobated by three different terms. (Calmet)
