<< Isaiah 13:13

Isaiah 13:14

"And the remnant" - Here is plainly a defect in this sentence, as it stands in the Hebrew text; the subject of the proposition is lost. What is it that shall be like a roe chased? The Septuagint happily supply it, ̔ , shear , the remnant. A MS. here supplies the word yosheb , the inhabitant; which makes a tolerably good sense; but I much prefer the reading of the Septuagint.

They shall - turn "They shall look" - That is, the forces of the king of Babylon, destitute of their leader, and all his auxiliaries, collected from Asia Minor, and other distant countries, shall disperse and flee to their respective homes.
