Isaiah 28:1 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Pride — That proud and insolent kingdom. Drunkards — Having many and excellent vines among them, they were much exposed to this sin. Ephraim — Of the kingdom of the ten tribes. Who are — Who have their common abode. The head — Samaria, might well be called the head, as being seated upon a mountain, and the head of the kingdom, and the head of the fat valleys, because it was encompassed with many fat and rich valleys.

Isaiah 28:1

1 Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, whose glorious beauty is a fading flower, which are on the head of the fat valleys of them that are overcomea with wine!
