פירוש על ישעיהו 5:17

And lambs shall graze as their wont The righteous who are compared to a flock of ewes.

Then shall the lambs feed, etc. Judah will then be desolate, and lambs will feed therein, as if they were driven to be there.

as their wont Heb. כדברם. According to their habit, with equity and with a measure, guiding their affairs with justice, like these lambs. [Variant reading: According to their habit, with equity and of their own, for there will no longer be wicked people in the world, who will rob them.] Our Rabbis expounded כְּדָבְרָם to mean: According to all that was spoken regarding them, [i.e.,] the consolations spoken for them.
