Isaiah 14:20 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Joined — Not buried as they are. Slain — Thou hast exercised great tyranny and cruelty, not only to thine enemies, but even to thine own subjects. The seed — Such as Belshazzar was, being descended from that Nebuchadnezzar who had made such horrid slaughters and devastations in the world, merely to gratify his own insatiable lusts, and who had been so impious towards God and his temple, and so bloody towards his church and people. Renowned — Or, shall not be renowned for ever: although I have long borne with thee and thy family.

Isaiah 14:20

20 Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, and slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned.
