Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then shall thou say unto them,.... Explaining the above words:
thus saith the Lord, behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land; this is the application of the parable, and shows that by every bottle is meant every inhabitant of Judea:
even the kings that sit upon David's throne; or, "that sit for David on his throne" w; that succeed him one after another; more kings may be meant than one, as Jehoiakim and Zedekiah; or the present reigning king, and the princes of the brood, are designed; who, though of David's family, and on his throne, yet this could not secure them from the calamity threatened:
and the priests; who ministered in holy things; their sacred office and function would not preserve them from ruin:
and the prophets; the false prophets, as the Targum, that prophesied smooth things, and prophesied them peace and safety, these should be involved in the common destruction:
and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with drunkenness; with tribulation, as the Targum interprets it; and adds,
"and shall be like a drunken man;''
giddy, stupid, unable to help themselves, or to advise one another.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The kings ... - i. e., his successors in general. In the fall of Jerusalem four kings in succession were crushed.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 13:13. Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land - with drunkenness. — You pretend to take this literally, but it is a symbol. You, and your kings, and priests, and prophets, are represented by these bottles. The wine is God's wrath against you, which shall first be shown by confounding your deliberations, filling you with foolish plans of defense, causing you from your divided counsels to fall out among yourselves, so that like so many drunken men you shall reel about and jostle each other; defend yourselves without plan, and fight without order, till ye all fall an easy prey into the hands of your enemies. The ancient adage is here fulfilled: -
Quos Deus vult perdere, prius dementat.
"Those whom God determines to destroy, he
first renders foolish."
