What does Isaiah 66:15 mean?
John Gill's Exposition of the Bible
Isaiah 66:15
For, behold, the Lord will come with fire
Either with material fire, with which mystical Babylon or Rome
shall be burnt, ( Revelation
18:8 ) , or with indignation and wrath, which shall be poured
out like fire, and be as intolerable and consuming as that:
and with his chariots like a whirlwind;
making a great noise, and striking great terror; alluding to
chariots in which men used formerly to fight: to render his
anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire;
a heap of words, to show the fierceness of his wrath, and how
severe his rebuke of enemies will be; which will be not a rebuke
in love, as of his own people, but in a way of vindictive wrath.
