This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
clouds - rather, “the cloud,” singular. Perhaps there is a reference to the cloud, the symbol of the divine presence (Isa 4:5; Exo 13:21). So this tallies with 2Th 2:4, “above all that is called God”; as here “above ... the cloud”; and as the Shekinah-cloud was connected with the temple, there follows, “he as God sitteth in the temple of God,” answering to “I will be like the Most High” here. Moreover, Rev 17:4, Rev 17:5, represents Antichrist as seated in Babylon, to which city, literal and spiritual, Isaiah refers here.
