Jeschijahu 59:15 Kommentar: Rashi & Ibn Ezra

וַתְּהִ֤י הָֽאֱמֶת֙ נֶעְדֶּ֔רֶת וְסָ֥ר מֵרָ֖ע מִשְׁתּוֹלֵ֑ל וַיַּ֧רְא יְהוָ֛ה וַיֵּ֥רַע בְּעֵינָ֖יו כִּֽי־אֵ֥ין מִשְׁפָּֽט׃

Die Wahrheit wurde vermisst, und wer vom Bösen wich, galt für toll. Der Herr sah es und es missfiel ihm, dass kein Recht da war.

Rashi on Isaiah

is considered mad Heb. מִשְׁתּוֹלֵל, considered mad by the people. Comp. (Micah 1:8) “I will go as a mad man (שׁוֹלָל).” This is equivalent to שׁוֹגֵג, inadvertent, which the Targum renders: שָׁלוּ. Likewise (II Sam. 6:7), “For his error (הַשַּׁל).”

Ibn Ezra on Isaiah

משתולל According to some it means "mad;" comp. שולל "mad"13A. V., "stripped." (Mic. 1:8); אשתללו "they are mad" (Ps. 76::6); perhaps all these words are serived from שלל "to deprive of property;"14The meaning of משתולל accordingly is "maketh himself a prey (A. V.). משתולל is the participle Hitpael of שלל.
