Wine, in biblical times, was often associated with joy, festivity, and abundance (<a href="/psalms/104-15.htm">Psalm 104:15</a>). The streets, typically places of commerce and social interaction, are now filled with cries of lamentation. This imagery reflects the judgment and devastation prophesied by Isaiah, where the normalcy of life is disrupted. The absence of wine symbolizes a deeper spiritual barrenness and the removal of God's blessings. This can be connected to the broader theme of divine judgment found in Isaiah, where the consequences of sin lead to a loss of joy and prosperity.<p><b>All joy turns to gloom;</b><br>The transformation from joy to gloom signifies a complete reversal of fortune. This is a common theme in prophetic literature, where the consequences of turning away from God result in sorrow and despair. The Hebrew word for "gloom" can also imply darkness, suggesting a spiritual and emotional state devoid of hope. This phrase echoes the warnings found in <a href="/deuteronomy/28.htm">Deuteronomy 28</a>, where disobedience to God's commandments leads to curses and suffering. The loss of joy is not just a physical or emotional state but a reflection of the spiritual condition of the people.<p><b>rejoicing is exiled from the land.</b><br>The concept of rejoicing being "exiled" suggests a forced removal, akin to the exile of the Israelites from their homeland. This imagery is powerful, as it conveys the idea that joy and celebration are no longer welcome or possible in a land under judgment. The land, often seen as a gift from God, is now devoid of its intended purpose of being a place of blessing and abundance. This can be linked to the Babylonian exile, where the Israelites experienced the physical and spiritual consequences of their disobedience. The absence of rejoicing also points to the need for restoration and redemption, themes that are fulfilled in the coming of Jesus Christ, who brings ultimate joy and reconciliation with God.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/i/isaiah.htm">Isaiah</a></b><br>The prophet who authored the book, delivering messages of judgment and hope from God to the people of Judah and Jerusalem.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_streets.htm">The Streets</a></b><br>Symbolic of public life and society, where the effects of God's judgment are visibly felt.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/w/wine.htm">Wine</a></b><br>Represents joy and celebration, which are absent due to the judgment.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/j/joy_and_rejoicing.htm">Joy and Rejoicing</a></b><br>Emotions and states of being that are notably absent, indicating a time of distress and divine judgment.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_land.htm">The Land</a></b><br>Refers to the nation of Israel, experiencing the consequences of turning away from God.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/t/the_consequences_of_sin.htm">The Consequences of Sin</a></b><br>Sin leads to a loss of joy and celebration.

Wine, though still manufactured (see vers. 7, 9) is scarce, but is much sought after. Men clamor for it at the doors of the wine-shops, but are unable to obtain it. They crave for its exhilarating effects, or perhaps for the oblivion which it brings when drunk to excess. If they could obtain it, they would act as the Jews in the siege of Jerusalem (<a href="/isaiah/22-13.htm">Isaiah 22:13</a>). But they cannot. Hence even the factitious merriment, which wine is capable of producing, is denied now to the inhabitants of the earth, with whom <span class="cmt_word">all joy is darkened</span>, from whom <span class="cmt_word">all mirth is gone</span>. <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/isaiah/24-11.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">In the streets</span><br /><span class="heb">בַּֽחוּצ֑וֹת</span> <span class="translit">(ba·ḥū·ṣō·wṯ)</span><br /><span class="parse">Preposition-b, Article | Noun -
