This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
The noise; the tumultuous noise, as the word properly signifies, which he called their blast in the foregoing verse; by which he means their rage and furious attempts, which are commonly managed with much noise and clamour.
Of strangers; of those strange and heathen nations that fought against God’s people.
Even the heat with the shadow of a cloud; with as much ease as thou dost in the course of thy common providence allay the heat of a dry season and place, either by the shadow of thy clouds, or by the rain which falleth from black and shadowy clouds.
The branch; the arm or power, as a branch is the arm of a tree. Or, the prince or commanders; for the word branch is sometimes put for a person of eminent place and power, as Psa_80:15 Isa_4:2 Zec_3:8 6:12. But others render the word, the song, as it is used, Son_2:12, their jovial and triumphant song.
