isaiah 56:9 All you beasts of the field, All you beasts in the forest, Come to eat.

9. beasts--Gentile idolatrous nations hostile to the Jews, summoned by God to chastise them (Jer 12:7-9; 50:17; Eze 34:5): the Chaldeans and subsequently the Romans. The mention of the "outcasts of Israel" (Isa 56:8) brings in view the outcasting, caused by the sins of their rulers (Isa 56:10-12).
to devour--namely, Israel.

isaiah 56:9 All you beasts of the field, All you beasts in the forest, Come to eat.
