Matthew Poole and continuators on Isaiah 7:19

19 And they shall come, and shall rest all of them in the desolate valleys , and in the holes of the rocks , and upon all thorns, and upon all bushes .

The Flies, and especially the Bees.

They shall have an easie Victory; few or none of them shall be slain in the Attempt.

Either, 1. such as were and had long been desolate. So it signifies the vast Numbers of their Enemies, which filled all Places, both such as are well inhabited, and such as were in a great measure desolate: Or, 2. such as they found very fruitful, but made them desolate.

To which possibly the Israelites fled for refuge.

Which he mentions partly because Flies and Bees use frequently to rest there; and partly to intimate, that no Place should escape the fury of this Enemy.

Marginal references: Or, commendable trees.
