Commentary on Isaiah 59:11
Two animals portray their distress: 'We roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves.' The bear's roar expresses frustrated anger; the dove's mourning expresses grief. 'We look for judgment, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us.' Both rage and sorrow characterize their condition.
