וְשֵׁרַשׁ כְּגִינְתָא בֵּית מוּקְדְשֵׁיהּ חִבֵּל אֲתַר מְזוּמָן לְכַפָּרָא עַל עַמֵּיהּ אִינְשֵׁי יְיָ בְּצִיּוֹן חֶדְוַת יוֹמָא טָבָא וְשַׁבְּתָא וּשְׁנָא בִתְקוֹף רוּגְזֵיהּ מַלְכָּא וְכַהֲנָא רַבָּא.
1. He laid bare | וַיַּחְמֹס – See R"Y Kara and Ibn Ezra who point to the word's usage in Yirmeyahu 13:22 where the verb is parallel to "נִגְלוּ" (revealed). Alternatively: "cut off" (Rashi, pointing to its usage in Iyyov 15:33, where the root is parallel to "וְיַשְׁלֵךְ", to cast off), "destroyed" (based on the parallel "שִׁחֵת" in our verse), or: "violently wronged", connecting the verb to the noun "חָמָס", violence.
2. shelter | שֻׂכּוֹ – This word appears only here, but is likely a variant of the word "סוּכּוֹ" (his "סוכה"), a booth or temporary shelter. [See Eikhah Rabbah for discussion of what might be learned from the variant spelling.] Hashem's "sukkah" is presumably the Beit HaMikdash, Hashem's dwelling place, as in Tehillim 76:3: "וַיְהִי בְשָׁלֵם סוּכּוֹ וּמְעוֹנָתוֹ בְצִיּוֹן".
3. like a garden | כַּגַּן – The metaphor might refer to the way a garden is laid bare after her fruits are gathered (R"Y Kara).
4. meeting place | מֹעֲדוֹ – This, too, likely refers to the Mikdash, the place where Hashem would meet with the nation (Shemot 25:22), and they themselves would gather (see Yeshayahu 33:20). The word "מועד"' can refer to a set time, assembly or meeting place, or specifically to the festivals (being "set times" or "gatherings"). Thus, in this verse, it first refers to a place and then to the festivals (see Lekach Tov and Ibn Kaspi).
