This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Isa_34:14 The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island, and the satyr shall cry to his fellow; the screech owl also shall rest there, and find for herself a place of rest.
Ver. 14. The wild beasts of the desert.] Heb., Ziim et jiim. See Isa_13:21-22, where these monstrous creatures are said to dance: whence Basil noteth, that men learned of devils to dance, and another {a} saith that a dance is a circle, the centre whereof is the devil, the circumference all his angels.
And the satyr shall cry to his fellow.] Heb., The rough or hairy one. Chald., Daemones inter se colludent, the devils shall play among themselves; Satan is a rough harsh spirit; so are his. See Lev_17:7.
{a} Conr. Clingius.
