They have no Knowledge
Isaiah 5:13
Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honorable men are famished…


How should they, when by their excessive drinking they make sots and fools of themselves? They set up for wits; but because they regard not God's controversy with them, nor take any care as to their peace with Him, they may truly be said to have no knowledge; and the reason is, because they will have none; inconsiderate and wilful, and therefore "destroyed for lack of knowledge."

( M. Henry.)
