Destruction upon destruction is cried; for the whole land is spoiled: suddenly are my tents spoiled, and my curtains in a moment.
Destruction upon destruction is cried - breach upon breach is announced (Psalms 42:7; Ezekiel 7:26). The war "trumpet" ... the battle-shout ... the "destructions" ... the havoc throughout "the whole land" ... the spoiling of the shepherds' "tents" (or, as in Jeremiah 10:20; "tents" mean cities which should be overthrown as easily as tents, Calvin), form a gradation.
