This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
great trumpet - image from the trumpets blown on the first day of the seventh month to summon the people to a holy convocation (Lev 23:24). Antitypically, the gospel trumpet (Rev 11:15; Rev 14:6) which the Jews shall hearken to in the last days (Zec 12:10; Zec 13:1). As the passover in the first month answers to Christ’s crucifixion, so the day of atonement and the idea of “salvation” connected with the feast of tabernacles in the same seventh month, answer to the crowning of “redemption” at His second coming; therefore redemption is put last in 1Co 1:30.
Assyria - whither the ten tribes had been carried; Babylonia is mainly meant, to which Assyria at that time belonged; the two tribes were restored, and some of the ten accompanied them. However, “Assyria” is designedly used to point ultimately to the future restoration of the ten fully, never yet accomplished (Jer 3:18).
Egypt - whither many had fled at the Babylonish captivity (Jer 41:17, Jer 41:18). Compare as to the future restoration, Isa 11:11, Isa 11:12, Isa 11:16; Isa 51:9-16 (“Rahab” being Egypt).
