Isaiah 65:13-14

     13. eat—enjoy all blessings from me (So 5:1).

      hungry— (Am 4:6; 8:11). This may refer to the siege of Jerusalem under Titus, when 1,100,000 are said to have perished by famine; thus Isa 65:15 will refer to God's people without distinction of Jew and Gentile receiving "another name," namely, that of Christians [HOUBIGANT]. A further fulfilment may still remain, just before the creation of the "new heavens and earth," as the context, Isa 65:17, implies.

     14. howl— (Isa 15:2; Mt 8:12).
