פּירוש אויף ישעיהו 24:22

And they shall be gathered a gathering that is to their detriment, i.e., to bring a prisoner into a dungeon prepared for him, those sentenced to Gehinnom to be brought into Gehinnom.

באסיר ═ אסיר As a prisoner. As prisoners are gathered, etc. As people who are brought to the prison to be shut in are often left there for a long time before they are visited to be supplied with their food. The idea contained in this simile is, that this evil will last a long time. יפקדו they shall be visited, may also be compared with ומימים רבים תפקד and after many years thou wilt be visited (Ez. 38:8), and explained in an evil sense.³¹According to the first explanation, יפקדו means they will be visited to receive their food; according to the second, they will be visited to receive their final punishment.

and they shall be shut up in the prison They are the seven compartments of Gehinnom.

and [sins] of many days shall be visited [upon them] Sins of many days shall be visited upon them. This is what the Kalir (R. Eleazar son of R. Kalir in his final liturgical poem for Parshath Zachor) established: “From many days to be counted, to reckon their reckonings.”
