Contextual Overview
1Look, the Lord is stripping the earth bare 2people and priest alike,servant and master,female servant and mistress,buyer and seller,lender and borrower,creditor and debtor. 3The earth will be stripped completely bareand will be totally plundered,for the Lord has spoken this message. 4The earth mourns and withers;the world wastes away and withers;the exalted people of the earth waste away. 5The earth is polluted by its inhabitants,for they have transgressed teachings,overstepped decrees,and broken the permanent covenant. 6Therefore a curse has consumed the earth,and its inhabitants have become guilty;the earth’s inhabitants have been burned,and only a few survive. 7The new wine mourns;the vine withers.All the carousers now groan. 8The joyful tambourines have ceased.The noise of the jubilant has stopped.The joyful lyre has ceased. 9They no longer sing and drink wine;beer is bitter to those who drink it. 10The city of chaos is shattered;every house is closed to entry.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
In the city is left desolation,.... And nothing else, palaces, houses, and temples burnt, and inhabitants destroyed; none but devils, foul spirits, and hateful and unclean birds, inhabiting it,
Revelation 18:2:
and the gate is smitten with destruction; or "gates", the singular for the plural; none passing and repassing through them, as formerly, and themselves utterly destroyed. This, according to Kimchi, shall be in the days of the Messiah, in the times of Gog and Magog.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And the gate is smitten with destruction - The word rendered âdestructionâ may denote âa crashâ (Gesenius). The idea is, that the gates of the city, once so secure, are how battered down and demolished, so that the enemy ran enter freely. Thus far is a description of the calamities that would come upon the nation. The following verses show that, though the desolation would be general, a few of the inhabitants would be left - circumstance thrown in to mitigate the prospect. of the impending ruin.
