This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Isa_13:16 Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.
Ver. 16. Their children shall be dashed in pieces, &c.] As had been prayed and prophesied long before {Psa_137:9} and this was but lex talionis. See 2Ch_36:17 Lam_5:11.
Their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.] As those three commandments, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, are ranked together in the law, so they are commonly violated together in the lawless violence of war.
