Bible Comments

Upon the whole earth; upon this vast empire, now in the hands of the Assyrians, and shortly to come into the hands of the Babylonians. The whole earth is put synecdochically for a great part of it. The hand; the providence of God executing his purpose.

Isaiah 14:26

26 This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations.
