Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Habakkuk 3:10

_ _ The mountains — repetition with increased emphasis of some of the tremendous phenomena mentioned in Habakkuk 3:6.

_ _ overflowing of the water passed by — namely, of the Red Sea; and again, of the Jordan. God marked His favor to His people in all the elements, causing every obstacle, whether mountains or waters, which impeded their progress, to “pass away” [Calvin]. Maurer, not so well, translates, “torrents (rains) of water rush down.”

_ _ lifted ... hands on high — namely, its billows lifted on high by the tempest. Personification. As men signify by voice or gesture of hand that they will do what they are commanded, so these parts of nature testified their obedience to God’s will (Exodus 14:22; Joshua 3:16; Psalms 77:17, Psalms 77:18; Psalms 114:4).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Habakkuk 3:3-15.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Habakkuk 3:10

Overflowing — The inundation which at that season was wont to be very great in and round Jordan, passed away at the word of God; the waters below flowed, and ran from those above, which stood on a heap to make a path for Israel. The deep — Either the deep channel in which Jordan flowed, or the Red Sea with dreadful roaring parted its waters. Lift up his hands — Its waves which stood on an heap.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Habakkuk 3:10

(n) He alludes to the Red Sea and Jordan, which gave passage to God's people, and showed signs of their obedience as it were by the lifting up of their hands.
