Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 1:29

_ _ ashamed — (Romans 6:21).

_ _ oaks — Others translate the “terebinth” or “turpentine tree.” Groves were dedicated to idols. Our Druids took their name from the Greek for “oaks.” A sacred tree is often found in Assyrian sculpture; symbol of the starry hosts, Saba.

_ _ gardens — planted enclosures for idolatry; the counterpart of the garden of Eden.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Isaiah 1:21-31.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Isaiah 1:29

The oaks — Which, after the manner of the Heathen, you have consecrated to idolatrous uses. Gardens — In which, as well is in the groves, they committed idolatry.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Isaiah 1:29

For they shall be ashamed of the (o) oaks which ye have desired, and ye shall be confounded for the gardens that ye have chosen.

(o) That is, the trees and pleasant places where you commit idolatry which was forbidden (Deuteronomy 16:22).
