‏ Isaiah 5:13

13. are gone--The prophet sees the future as if it were before his eyes.

no knowledge--because of their foolish recklessness (Is 5:12; Is 1:3; Ho 4:6; Lu 19:44).

famished--awful contrast to their luxurious feasts (Is 5:11, 12).

multitude--plebeians in contradistinction to the "honorable men," or nobles.

thirst--(Psa 107:4, 5). Contrast to their drinking (Is 5:11). In their deportation and exile, they shall hunger and thirst.
