Isaías 34:13 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 34:13

And thorns shall come up in her palaces
Where their kings and princes dwelt, and kept their courts, popes and cardinals; here will be the tokens of God's curse, as thorns are, these being the people of his curse, as in ( Isaiah 34:5 ) : nettles and brambles in the fortresses thereof;
alluding to "Bozrah" which signifies a fortress; referring to the towers and fortifications of the city of Rome, and all other fortified cities within its jurisdiction: and it shall be a habitation of dragons;
literally, as it figuratively had been the seat of the old dragon, the devil, and of the beast to whom the dragon gave his power, seat, and authority; and who, though he looked like a lamb, spoke like a dragon, ( Revelation 12:3 ) ( Revelation 13:2 Revelation 13:11 ) : [and] a court for owls;
or, "daughters of the owl"; or "ostriches", as some render it.

Isaías 34:13 In-Context

11 Mas o pelicano e o ouriço a possuirão; a coruja e o corvo nela habitarão; e ele estenderá sobre ela o cordel de confusão e o prumo de vaidade.
12 Eles chamarão ao reino os seus nobres, mas nenhum haverá; e todos os seus príncipes não serão coisa nenhuma.
13 E crescerão espinhos nos seus palácios, urtigas e cardos nas suas fortalezas; e será uma habitação de chacais, um sítio para avestruzes.
14 E as feras do deserto se encontrarão com hienas; e o sátiro clamará ao seu companheiro; e Lilite pousará ali, e achará lugar de repouso para si.
15 Ali fará a coruja o seu ninho, e porá os seus ovos, e aninhará os seus filhotes, e os recolherá debaixo da sua sombra; também ali se ajuntarão os abutres, cada fêmea com o seu companheiro.
