What is the command "Karchi va'Gozi"?
Rashi: Detach and cut the hair of your head, like "va'Yagaz Es Rosho" (Iyov 1:20), an expression of detaching hair. Radak ? Karachah is detaching by hand, and Gezizah is with a scissors. This refers to Morashah or Adulam, or the entire land.. He does not address the residents, "Ki Galu Mimech" (they were exiled from you)! It is a Mashal. He tells the land to act like a mourner.
Malbim: First detach and cut the hair of your head due to Bnei Ta'anugayich while they are still by you, for via their pleasures they sinned against him. Afterwards, widen your bald spot, for they were exiled from you.
Who are "Bnei Ta'anugayich"?
Radak: [Your pampered ones,] like Yirmeyah lamented "Bnei Tziyon ha'Yekarim?" (Eichah 4:2).
What is the comparison to an eagle?
Targum Yonasan: Like an eagle, that [the feathers of] its wings fall off. Rashi - an eagle drops most of [the feathers of] its wings 1 .
Malbim: Birds that steal, their feathers drop, especially an eagle. In the end, all its feathers drop, and it dies due to this.
Radak: An eagle flies higher than other birds. After 10 years, it ascends very high, close to Galgal ha'Esh. Due to the great heat, its feathers fall off. (Refer to Yeshayah 40:31:3:2).
