This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
They, my neglected sheep, were scattered, by the inroads and invasions of their enemies, that broke in like devouring beasts.
No shepherd; no vigilant, faithful, good shepherd that loved the flock, and of love studied its welfare.
Became meat; were made a prey of, and devoured by Syrians, Ammonites, Moabites, Edomites, &c., all their neighbours might the devour them.
The beasts, signify men, troops of robbers, and spoilers.
When they were scattered; as sheep scattered are easily devoured by every hungry wolf or fox.
