Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 14:19

_ _ cast out of — not that he had lain in the grave and was then cast out of it, but “cast out without a grave,” such as might have been expected by thee (“thy”).

_ _ branch — a useless sucker starting up from the root of a tree, and cut away by the husbandman.

_ _ raiment of those ... slain — covered with gore, and regarded with abhorrence as unclean by the Jews. Rather, “clothed (that is, covered) with the slain”; as in Job 7:5, “My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust” [Maurer].

_ _ thrust through — that is, “the slain who have been thrust through,” etc.

_ _ stones of ... pit — whose bodies are buried in sepulchres excavated amidst stones, whereas the king of Babylon is an unburied “carcass trodden under foot.”

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Isaiah 14:4-23.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Isaiah 14:19

Cast out — Or, cast from thy grave or burying — place. Which very probably happened to Belshazzar, when his people had neither opportunity nor heart to bestow an honourable interment upon him, and the conquerors would not suffer them to do it. Like — Like a rotten twig of a tree, which he that prunes the trees, casts away. Raiment — Which, being mangled, and besmeared with mire, and blood, was cast away with contempt. Go down — Who being slain, are cast into some pit. He saith, to the stones of the pit, because when dead bodies are cast in thither, men use to throw an heap of stones upon them. Trodden — Neglected, like such a carcase. And this might literally happen to Belshazzar's dead body.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Isaiah 14:19

But thou art (m) cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, [and as] the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet.

(m) You were not buried in the sepulchre of your fathers, your tyranny was so abhorred.
