Isaiah 34:13 - Exposition
Thorns shall come up in her palaces . The "palaces" of Bozrah are mentioned also by Amos ( Amos 1:12 ), and are threatened with destruction by fire. Amid their ruins should grow up thorns and briars. It shall be an habitation of dragons ; or, of jackals (see the comment on Isaiah 13:22 ). Owls ; literally, daughters of screaming—a description better suited to the owl than to the ostrich, which some regard as the bird meant.
