And the LORD shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning: and the Lord GOD And the LORD shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning: and the Lord GOD shall blow the trumpet, and shall go with whirlwinds of the south.
And the Lord shall be seen over them. Another image: "Yahweh shall be seen (conspicuously manifesting his power) over them" - (i:e., in behalf of the Jews and against their foes), as formerly he appeared in a cloud over the Israelites against the Egyptians (Exodus 14:19; Exodus 14:24).
And his arrow shall go forth as the lightning - flashing forth instantaneous destruction to the foe (Psalms 18:14).
And the Lord God shall blow the trumpet - to summon and incite His people to the battle for the destruction of their foe.
And shall go with whirlwinds of the south - i:e., shall go forth in the most furious storms, such as is one from the south (Isaiah 21:1). Alluding, perhaps, to Yahweh's ancient miracles at Sinai coming "from Teman" (Habakkuk 3:3), ('the South,' in margin.)
