From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh -The language used here is that which appropriately describes the distresses resuiting from discord and internal strifes. Similar language occurs inIsaiah 9:20(see the note on that verse). Their rage shall be excited against each other; and there shall be anarchy, internal discord, and the desire of mutual revenge. They shall destroy themselves by mutual conflicts, until they are gorged with slaughter, and drunk with blood.
