Isaiah 66:6 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

A voice of noise from the city; the expression of a prophetical ecstasy, as much as, Methinks I already hear a voice of noise, rather a sad and affrighting noise, than the noise of triumphers (as some think); yea, it comes not from the city only, but from the temple, wherein these formalists have so much gloried, and reposed so much confidence. There is a noise of soldiers slaying, and of the priests or poor people fled thither shrieking or crying out. A voice of the Lord; not in thunder, which is sometimes called so, Psalms 29:3-5, &c., but that rendereth recompence to his enemies. Thus the noise of soldiers, the roaring of guns, the sound of drums and trumpets, are the voice of the Lord. Thus the prophet seemeth to express the destruction of the Jews by the Roman armies, as if a thing at that time doing.
