Wesley's Notes

7:22 Abundance - Because they shall have large pastures, by reason of the great scarcity of cattle. Butter - Which the poorer sort had formerly used to sell, to procure them cheaper food for themselves: but now the land should be so destitute of people, that there were none to whom they could sell them.

King James Translators' Notes

the land: Heb. the midst of the land

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

22. abundance-by reason of the wide range of land lying desolate over which the cows and sheep (including goats) may range.

butter-thick milk, or cream.

honey-(See on [696]Isa 7:15). Food of spontaneous growth will be the resource of the few inhabitants left. Honey shall be abundant as the bees will find the wild flowers abounding everywhere.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

7:17-25 Let those who will not believe the promises of God, expect to hear the alarms of his threatenings; for who can resist or escape his judgments? The Lord shall sweep all away; and whomsoever he employs in any service for him, he will pay. All speaks a sad change of the face of that pleasant land. But what melancholy change is there, which sin will not make with a people? Agriculture would cease. Sorrows of every kind will come upon all who neglect the great salvation. If we remain unfruitful under the means of grace, the Lord will say, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforth for ever.


Isaiah 8:15 "Many will stumble over them, Then they will fall and be broken; They will even be snared and caught." (NASB ©1995)
