ဇောစက်ရာမှင် 11:2

2 အိုထင်းရူးပင်၊ အာရဇ်ပင်လဲသောကြောင့် မြည် တမ်းလော့။ မြတ်သောအပင်တို့သည် ပျက်စီးကြပြီ။ အို ဗာရှန်သပိတ်ပင်တို့၊ ခိုင်ခံ့သောတောကို ခုတ်လှဲသော ကြောင့် မြည်တမ်းကြလော့။

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Howl, fir tree; for the cedar is fallen,.... By which are designed the princes, nobles, and magistrates of the land: so the Targum interprets them of kings and princes; see Nahum 2:3:

because all the mighty are spoiled; which is an explanation of the figurative expressions in the former clause, and in the following; and designs rich men, as the Targum paraphrases it, who at this time would be spoiled of their wealth and substance.

Howl, O ye oaks of Bashan; which the Targum interprets of governors of provinces; and men of power and authority are doubtless intended; see Isaiah 2:13:

for the forest of the vintage is come down; or rather, "the fortified forest"; meaning the city of Jerusalem, which was a fortified place, and like a forest full of trees, for number of inhabitants, but now cut down and destroyed; see Isaiah 10:16.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Howl, O cypress, for the cedar is fallen - Jerusalem or the temple having been likened to Lebanon and its cedars, the prophet carries on the image, speaking of the priests princes and people, under the title of firs, cypresses and oaks, trees inferior, but magnificent. He shows that it is imagery, by ascribing to them the feelings of people. The more glorious and stately, “the cedars,” were destroyed. Woe then to the rest, “the cypress;” as our Lord says, “If they do these things in the green tree, what shall be done, in the dry?” Luke 23:31, and Peter, “If the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?” 1 Peter 4:18.

For the defensed forest is come down - That which was closed and inaccessible to the enemy. All which was high and lifted up was brought low, “came down,” even to the ground .

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Zechariah 11:2. Howl, fir tree — This seems to point out the fall and destruction of all the mighty men.
