This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Isa_22:2 Thou that art full of stirs, a tumultuous city, a joyous city: thy slain [men are] not slain with the sword, nor dead in battle.
Ver. 2. Thou that art full of stirs.] Clamoribus fragosis, {a} How soon hast thou changed thy cheer and thy note? thy joyful acclamations into doleful exclamations?
Thy slain men are not slain with the sword.] Sed mortui ex anxietate; but are foreslain with fear, or, as others, by the visible vengeance of God, as Titus acknowledged at the last sack of that city, {b} and as the poet sang of Troy -
“ Non tibi Tindaridis facies invisa Lacaenae,
Culpatusve Paris; verum inclcmcntia divum
Has evertit opes. ” - Virgil.
{a} Strepera [?Strepitus.]
{b} Joseph., lib. vii. cap. 16.
