He proceeds in his figurative elegancies: q.d. Behold how the mountains of Judea tremble! a like expression Psalms 18:7,8 Isa 5:25; as if the very senseless creatures were astonished at the greatness of God's anger; and he mentions these as being the most stable part of the earth, yet shake before him. All the hills moved lightly; as easily as if they were some very light matter, or as dust or feathers in a whirlwind. See Psalms 114:4,6. Or these may be said hyperbolically to tremble and move by reason of the multitudes of trampling and prancing horses and chariots furiously passing over them.
