SCRIPTURE

"The earth shall be utterly emptied, and utterly laid waste; for Jehovah hath spoken this word." — Isaiah 24:3 (ASV)

The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled , &c.] Entirely emptied of its inhabitants, and wholly spoiled of its riches and substance; this is repeated, and with greater strength, to confirm what is before said, and which receives a greater confirmation by what follows: for the Lord has spoken this word ; who is able to perform it, and who is faithful to his threatenings, as to his promises; not a word of his shall ever fail; the judgments threatened to the antichristian world are his true and faithful sayings; and the ruin of Rome is certain, because strong is the Lord that judgeth her, (Revelation 18:8) .
