Isaiah 66:6 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the LORD that rendereth recompence to his enemies.

A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the Lord that rendereth recompense to his enemies. God, from Jerusalem and His "temple," shall take vengeance on the enemy (Ezekiel 43:1-8; Zechariah 12:2-3; Zechariah 14:3; Zechariah 14:19-21 ). The abrupt language of this verse marks the suddenness with which God destroys the hostile Gentile host outside: as Isaiah 66:5 refers to the confounding of the unbelieving Jews.

Voice of noise - i:e., the Lord's loud-sounding voice ( Psalms 68:33; Psalms 29:3-9; 1 Thessalonians 4:16).
