Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 18:6

_ _ birds ... beasts — transition from the image “sprigs,” “branches,” to the thing meant: the Assyrian soldiers and leaders shall be the prey of birds and beasts, the whole year through, “winter” and “summer,” so numerous shall be their carcasses. Horsley translates the Hebrew which is singular: “upon it,” not “upon them”; the “it” refers to God’s “dwelling-place” (Isaiah 18:4) in the Holy Land, which Antichrist (“the bird of prey” with the “beasts,” his rebel hosts) is to possess himself of, and where he is to perish.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Isaiah 18:1-7.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Isaiah 18:6

Thy — The branches being cut down and thrown upon the ground, with the unripe grapes upon them. Left — They shall lie upon the earth, so that either birds or beasts may shelter themselves with them, or feed on them, both summer and winter.
