Isaiah 16:2
2 For it shall be, that, as a wandering bird cast out of the nest, so the daughters of Moab shall be at the fords of Arnon.
Isa. 16:2
Isa. 16:2. The comparison is to be understood of such birds as the children of Israel used to keep, as doves particularly, which, if they were turned and shut out of their dove-houses, would not know what to do nor where to go, no more than Noah's dove when sent out of the Ark. As to wild birds, the difficulty was not such with them which had no particular house or certain fixed home, and if they were turned out of one nest could make another. See Hosea 7:11; Hosea 11:11.
Isa. 25:11
