Isaiah5:17
Ver. 17. Then ſhall the Lambs feed after their manner] i. e. freely and quietly: by Lambs here underſtand the godly poor (thoſe Lambs with golden fleeces) who ſhall be graciouſly provided for.
And the waſte places of the fat ones] Medullatorum, of thoſe fat Buls of Baſhan, who had oppreſſed the poor, and laid waſte their dwellings: but are now ſerved in like ſort by the enemy.
Shall the ſtrangers eat] Such as had been ſtrangers at home, becauſe held captive in a far countrey, but are now returned, and repoſſeſſed of all.
