Holy Scripture
Psalms 87:7
A church father on this verse
“We ought to know that what we have interpreted of the Church can be understood also of our soul. For if Zion is interpreted as a watchtower, and our soul in no other way but always considers higher things: the true church, the true temple of Christ is nothing other than the human soul. The Church of Christ is nothing…”

In context
5I have been reckoned with them that go down to the pit; I became as a man without help;
6free among the dead, As the slain ones cast out, who sleep in the tomb; Whom thou rememberest no more; And they are rejected from thy hand.
— Psalms 87:7 —
8Thy wrath has pressed heavily upon me, And thou hast brought upon me all thy billows. Pause.
9Thou hast removed my acquaintance far from me; They have made me an abomination to themselves; I have been delivered up, and have not gone forth.
