Albert Barnes Commentary Isaiah 24:13

"For thus shall it be in the midst of the earth among the peoples, as the shaking of an olive-tree, as the gleanings when the vintage is done." — Isaiah 24:13 (ASV)

In the midst of the land – That is, in the midst of the land of Canaan.

There shall be as the shaking of an olive-tree – A few shall be left, as in gathering olives a few will remain on the highest and outermost branches (see the notes at Isaiah 17:5-6).
