And Hazor shall be a dwelling for dragons, [and] a desolation for ever, etc.] The city of Hazor, as well as the kingdoms of it; the royal city, where their king and principal men dwelt; even this should be no more inhabited by men, but by dragons, and the wild beasts of the field, and so remain for ever, at least a long time; (see <231320>Isaiah 13:20-22); there shall no man abide there, nor any son of man dwell in it: signifying the utter desolation of it; (see Gill on “<244918>Jeremiah 49:18”).
