Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 10. - The city of confusion is broken down. No special city seems to be intended. "Est urbis nomen collective capiendum" (Rosenmüller). Chaos (tohu) reigns in the cities, where there is no civic life, no government, no order, nothing but confusion. Every house is shut up; bolted and barred against intruders. There is no confidence, no friendly intercourse, no visiting.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(10) The city of confusion.--Better, the city of chaos, the tohu of Genesis 1:2, "without form and void." The world should be cast back out of its cosmos into its primeval chaos. The word is a favourite one with Isaiah (Isaiah 34:11; Isaiah 59:4, and nine other passages).Every house is shut up--i.e., to complete the picture, not because its gates are barred, but because its own ruins block up the entrance.
