Isaiah 3:5 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

The people shall be oppressed, by the command or connivance of such childish rulers. The child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honourable; foolish and unworthy men shall by wicked arts gain the favour and abuse the power of the prince, and thereby behave themselves insolently towards their betters.

Isaiah 3:5

5 And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbour: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honourable.
