Habakkuk 1:7 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves.

Their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves - i:e., they recognize no judge save themselves, and they get for themselves and keep their own "dignity," without needing others' help. It will be vain for the Jews to complain of their tyrannical judgments; for whatever the Chaldeans decree they will do according to their own will: they will not brook any one attempting to interfere.
