24 With arrows and with bows shall men come thither; because all the land shall become briers and thorns.
24 Hunters will go there with bow and arrow, for the land will be covered with briers and thorns.
24 With bow and arrows a man will come there, for all the land will be briers and thorns.
24 Weeds and thorn bushes everywhere! Good for nothing except, perhaps, hunting rabbits.
24 With arrows and bows men will come there, Because all the land will become briers and thorns.
24 The entire land will become a vast expanse of briers and thorns, a hunting ground overrun by wildlife.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Isaiah 7:24
Commentary on Isaiah 7:17-25
(Read Isaiah 7:17-25)
Let those who will not believe the promises of God, expect to hear the alarms of his threatenings; for who can resist or escape his judgments? The Lord shall sweep all away; and whomsoever he employs in any service for him, he will pay. All speaks a sad change of the face of that pleasant land. But what melancholy change is there, which sin will not make with a people? Agriculture would cease. Sorrows of every kind will come upon all who neglect the great salvation. If we remain unfruitful under the means of grace, the Lord will say, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforth for ever.
