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 el pelícano y el erizo la poseerán, el búho y el cuervo habitarán en ella; El extenderá sobre ella el cordel de desolación y la plomada del vacío.
12 Sus nobles (y allí no hay ninguno a quien puedan proclamar rey) y todos sus príncipes serán nada.
13 Espinos crecerán en sus palacios, ortigas y cardos en sus ciudades fortificadas; será también guarida de chacales y morada de crías de avestruz.
14 Las fieras del desierto se encontrarán con las hienas, el macho cabrío llamará a los de su especie; sí, el monstruo nocturno se establecerá allí, y encontrará para sí lugar de reposo.
15 Allí la serpiente anidará y pondrá sus huevos, los incubará y juntará su cría bajo su sombra; también allí se juntarán los halcones, cada uno con su compañera.
