This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





That this morning light should in a moment spread itself over the face of the whole earth, from one end of the hemisphere to the other.



Shaken out of it, from the face of the earth. And this effect the morning light hath upon the wicked, partly because it discovers them, and drives them into their lurking holes; whereas the darkness hides them, and draws them forth, and gives them opportunity to execute their villanies without observation, Job_24:15-17; and partly because it brings them to condign punishment, the morning being the most fit and the most usual time for executing judgment; of which see Psa_101:8 Jer_21:12.
