This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





He shall come up as clouds; either noting the vast number of them, Isa_60:8 Heb_12:1; or the suddenness of them, when not expected, clouds often rising on a sudden, and overspreading the whole face of the heavens; or rather, the great speed and swiftness with which Nebuchadnezzar shall march against them, Isa_19:1, hyperbolically described by the swiftness of eagles in this verse, Jer_48:8.



His chariots shall be as a whirlwind; which beside the swiftness, notes also the confusion and amazement that they will cause, Isa_66:15.



Woe unto us! for we are spoiled: the dreadful apprehensions that the people have of their woeful condition, or possibly the words of the prophet lamenting their misery.
