Isaías 24:14 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 24:14

They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing
That is, as the Septuagint version adds,

``they that are left upon the earth;''
these shall lift up their voice, in singing the praises of God, for his judgments on Babylon, and avenging the blood of his saints; and for their deliverance and salvation, and the inestimable blessings they are now put into the possession of; these are they, who, having gotten the victory over the beast and his image, sing the song of Moses and the Lamb, ( Revelation 15:2 Revelation 15:3 ) ( Revelation 19:1 Revelation 19:2 ) : for the majesty of the Lord, they shall cry aloud from the sea:
so the Hebrew accents distinguish these clauses; and the sense is, that from the west, as Kimchi and Ben Melech interpret it, from the western nations, where Protestantism chiefly prevails; or from the Mediterranean Sea, which lay west of Judea; from the maritime countries, the countries bordering upon it, where at this time will appear many that will embrace the Gospel of Christ; or from the isles of the sea, as the phrase is explained in the next verse ( Isaiah 24:15 ) , such as our isles of Great Britain and Ireland; great acclamations will be made unto the Lord, on account of his glorious majesty, seen in the destruction of antichrist, and in setting up his own kingdom and glory: these are the four and twenty elders, who will fall down, and give thanks to Christ, for taking to himself his great power, and reigning; and these triumphant and victorious persons are represented as standing on a sea, while they make their shouts and hallelujahs; see ( Revelation 11:16-18 ) ( 15:2 ) this, with what follows in the two next verses ( Isaiah 24:15 Isaiah 24:16 ) , belong to the Philadelphian church state, or spiritual reign of Christ, and express the light and joy that will attend that.

Isaías 24:14 In-Context

12 La ciudad está en ruinas;su puerta está hecha pedazos.
13 Así sucederá en medio de la tierray entre las naciones,como cuando a golpes se cosechan aceitunas,como cuando se recogen rebuscosdespués de la vendimia.
14 El remanente eleva su voz y grita de alegría;desde el occidente aclama la majestad del SEÑOR.
15 Por eso, glorifiquen al SEÑOR en el oriente;el nombre del SEÑOR, Dios de Israel,en las costas del mar.
16 Desde los confines de la tierra oímos cantar:«¡Gloria al justo!»Pero yo digo: «¡Ay de mí!¡Qué dolor, que me consumo!»Los traidores traicionan,los traidores maquinan traiciones.
