Gill's Notes on the Bible

Is not the meat cut off before our eyes?.... Such an interrogation most strongly affirms; it was a matter out of all question, they could not but see it with their eyes; it was a plain case, and not to be denied, that every eatable thing, or that of which food was wont to be made, was cut off by the locusts, or the drought, or by the Assyrian or Chaldean army:

[yea], joy and gladness from the house of our God; the harvest being perished, there were no firstfruits brought to the temple, which used to be attended with great joy; and the corn and vines being wasted, no meat offerings made of fine flour, nor drink offerings of wine, were offered, which used to make glad God and man; nor any other sacrifices, on which the priests and their families lived, and were matter of joy to them; and these they ate of in the temple, or in courts adjoining to it. So Philo y the Jew says of the ancient Jews, that

"having prayed and offered sacrifices, and appeased the Deity, they washed their bodies and souls; the one in lavers, the other in the streams of the laws, and right instruction; and being cheerful, turned themselves to their food, not going home oftentimes, but remaining in the holy places where they sacrificed; and as mindful of the sacrifices, and reverencing the place, they kept a feast truly holy, not shining either in word or deed.''

y De Plantatione Noe, p. 237.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Is not the meat cut off before our eyes? - The prophet exhibits the immediate judgment, as if it were already fullilled in act. He sets it in detail before their eyes. “When the fruits of the earth were now ripe, the grain now calling for the reaper, and the grapes fully ripe and desiring to be pressed out, they were taken away, when set before their eyes for them to enjoy.” Yea, “joy and gladness from the house of our God.” The joy in the abundance of the harvest was expressed in one universal thanksgiving to God, by fathers of families, sons, daughters, menservants, maidservants, with the priest and Levite. All this was to be cut off together. The courts of God’s house were to be desolate and silent, or joy and gladness were to be turned into sorrow and wailing.

: “So it befell those who rejected and insulted Christ. “The Bread of life Which came down from heaven and gave life to the world John 6:48, John 6:51, the grain of wheat, which fell into the ground and died, and brought forth much fruit” John 12:24, that spiritual “wine” which knoweth how to “gladden the heart of man,” was already in a manner before their eyes. But when they ceased not to insult Him in unbelief, He, as it were, disappeared from their eyes, and they lost all spiritual sustenance. All share in all good is gone from them. “Joy and gladness” have also gone “from the House” which they had. For they are given up to desolation, and “abide without king or prince or sacrifice” Hosea 3:4. Again, the Lord said, “Man, shall not live by bread alone, but by every word which cometh forth out of the Mouth of God” Matthew 4:4. The word of God then is food. This hath been taken away from the Jews, for they understood not the writings of Moses, but “to this day the veil is upon their heart” 2 Corinthians 3:15. For they hate the oracles of Christ. All spiritual food is perished, not in itself but to “them.” To them, it is as though it were not. But the Lord Himself imparts to these who believe in Him a right to all exuberance of joy in the good tilings from above. For it is written, “The Lord will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish; but He thrusts away the desire of the wicked” Proverbs 10:3.
