From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

The wind hath bound her up in her wings -When God brought Israel out of Egypt, He “bare them on eagle’s wings, and brought them unto Himself”Exodus 19:4;Deuteronomy 32:11. Now they had abandoned God, and God abandoned them as chaff to the wind. The certainty of Israel’s doom is denoted by its being spoken of in the past. It was certain in the divine judgment. Sudden, resistless, irreversible are God’s judgments, when they come.
