Isaiah 33:13 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 33:13

Hear, ye [that are] far off, what I have done
Not meaning the destruction of the Assyrian, as it is commonly interpreted; but the ruin of antichrist, the beast, and false prophet, and the burning of the city and whore of Rome; for, whoever will be the instruments, the work is the Lord's, and therefore it will be done: "she shall be utterly burnt with fire, for strong is the Lord who judgeth her", ( Revelation 18:8 ) and this shall be heard of far and near, who shall applaud the mighty work, and give God the glory of it, ( Revelation 19:1 Revelation 19:2 ) : and, ye [that are] near, acknowledge my might;
even his omnipotence, which will be seen, observed, and owned by multitudes, who will say, "Allelujah, for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth", ( Revelation 19:6 ) there will be some that will be nigh, that shall stand afar off, lamenting her case, and will not own the hand of God in it, ( Revelation 18:9 Revelation 18:10 Revelation 18:15 ) but others will.

Isaiah 33:13 In-Context

11 concipietis ardorem parietis stipulam spiritus vester ut ignis vorabit vos

12 et erunt populi quasi de incendio cinis spinae congregatae igni conburentur

13 audite qui longe estis quae fecerim et cognoscite vicini fortitudinem meam

14 conterriti sunt in Sion peccatores possedit tremor hypocritas quis poterit habitare de vobis cum igne devorante quis habitabit ex vobis cum ardoribus sempiternis

15 qui ambulat in iustitiis et loquitur veritates qui proicit avaritiam ex calumnia et excutit manus suas ab omni munere qui obturat aures suas ne audiat sanguinem et claudit oculos suos ne videat malum
