Isaiah 7:23

John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible · John Gill (1697–1771) · Public Domain

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 ; or the fruit of them came to such a price; see So 8:11:it shall [even] be for briers and thorns; for want of persons to stock the ground and cultivate it.
