Isaiah 31:4 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

For thus hath the LORD spoken unto me, Like as the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, he will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so shall the LORD of hosts come down to fight for mount Zion, and for the hill thereof.

Like as the lion - (Isaiah 42:13; Hosea 11:10.)

Roaring on his prey - growling over his prey.

He will not ... abase himself - be disheartened or fightened.
