Isaiah 28:28
Bread corn—corn of which bread is made.
bruised—threshed with the corn-drag (as contrasted with dill and cummin, "beaten with the staff"), or, "trodden out" by the hoofs of cattle driven over it on the threshing-floor [G. V. SMITH], (Deuteronomy 25:4; Micah 4:13).
because—rather, "but" [HORSLEY]; though the corn is threshed with the heavy instrument, yet he will not always be thus threshing it.
break it—"drive over it (continually) the wheel" [MAURER].
cart—threshing-drag.
horsemen—rather, "horses"; used to tread out corn.
