Bible Comments

The sword — The metaphor is taken from a great glutton, who is almost insatiable. Rams — By lambs, and goats, and rams, he means people of all ranks and conditions, high and low, rich and poor. Bozrah — A chief city of Edom, and a type of those cities which should be most opposite to God's people.

Isaiah 34:6

6 The sword of the LORD is filled with blood, it is made fat with fatness, and with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams: for the LORD hath a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Idumea.
