“And thorns shall come up in her palaces, nettles and brambles in the fortresses thereof: and it shall be an habitation of dragons, and a court for owls . owls: or, ostriches: Heb. daughters of the owl”
Isaiah 34:13 (KJV)
Commentary on Isaiah 34:13
Thorns and nettles overtaking palaces reverses the cultivated garden ideal, recalling Eden's curse (Genesis 3:18). Dragons (jackals) and owls represent desolation and demonic associations in Scripture. The habitation becoming a dwelling for unclean creatures illustrates how sin's consequences include spiritual defilement. This imagery foreshadows Babylon's fall in Revelation 18:2, where demons inhabit the ruined city.
