Isaiah 7:23

23 et erit in die illa omnis locus ubi fuerint mille vites mille argenteis et in spinas et in vepres erunt

Isaiah 7:23 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 7:23

And it shall come to pass in that day; [that] every place
shall be
Barren and unfruitful, for want of men to till the ground: where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings;
which were so good, as to be sold or let out for so many silver shekels ^F13; or the fruit of them came to such a price; see ( Song of Solomon 8:11 ) : it shall [even] be for briers and thorns;
for want of persons to stock the ground and cultivate it.

FOOTNOTES:

F13 Which was about two shillings and sixpence of our money.

Isaiah 7:23 In-Context

21 et erit in die illa nutriet homo vaccam boum et duas oves

22 et prae ubertate lactis comedet butyrum butyrum enim et mel manducabit omnis qui relictus fuerit in medio terrae

23 et erit in die illa omnis locus ubi fuerint mille vites mille argenteis et in spinas et in vepres erunt

24 cum sagittis et arcu ingredientur illuc vepres enim et spinae erunt in universa terra

25 et omnes montes qui in sarculo sarientur non veniet illuc terror spinarum et veprium et erit in pascua bovis et in conculcationem pecoris
