Matthew Poole and continuators on Isaiah 16:7

7 Therefore shall Moab howl for Moab , every one shall howl: for the foundations of Kirhareseth shall ye mourn , surely they are stricken .

For it self; the Noun put for the Pronoun, as is usual in the Hebrew Text. Or, to Moab. One Moabite shall howl or lament to or for another.

An ancient and eminent City of Moab, called Kir, chap. 13. 1. and Kir-haresh, v. 11. which signifies, The city of the sun; probably because there was the Temple of the Sun: which City was preserved when their other Cities were ruined, 2 Kings 3. 25. and therefore the Destruction of it was more lamented.

Or, ye shall meditate or talk, as this Word commonly signifies. Your Thoughts and Discourses will run much upon the Ruine of such a City.

Or, broken, overthrown or destroyed.
