Exegesis
The verse opens with the additive conjunction ve-gam {וְגַם | wə-gam} ‘and also’, linking to the prior oracle.
The demonstrative plural eleh {אֵלֶּה | ʾêl-leh} ‘these’ identifies the subjects.
In context — Isaiah 28:7
And these also err in wine and wander in strong drink; the priest and the prophet err in strong drink, are swallowed up by wine, wander from strong drink; they err in vision and stumble in judgment .
