Habakkuk 3:2
_ _ I have heard thy speech — Thy revelation to me concerning the coming chastisement of the Jews [Calvin], and the destruction of their oppressors. This is Habakkuk’s reply to God’s communication [Grotius]. Maurer translates, “the report of Thy coming,” literally, “Thy report.”
_ _ and was afraid — reverential fear of God’s judgments (Habakkuk 3:16).
_ _ revive thy work — Perfect the work of delivering Thy people, and do not let Thy promise lie as if it were dead, but give it new life by performing it [Menochius]. Calvin explains “thy work” to be Israel; called “the work of My hands” (Isaiah 45:11). God’s elect people are peculiarly His work (Isaiah 43:1), pre-eminently illustrating His power, wisdom, and goodness. “Though we seem, as it were, dead nationally, revive us” (Psalms 85:6). However (Psalms 64:9), where “the work of God” refers to His judgment on their enemies, favors the former view (Psalms 90:16, Psalms 90:17; Isaiah 51:9, Isaiah 51:10).
_ _ in the midst of the years — namely, of calamity in which we live. Now that our calamities are at their height; during our seventy years’ captivity. Calvin more fancifully explains it, in the midst of the years of Thy people, extending from Abraham to Messiah; if they be cut off before His coming, they will be cut off as it were in the midst of their years, before attaining their maturity. So Bengel makes the midst of the years to be the middle point of the years of the world. There is a strikingly similar phrase (Daniel 9:27), In the midst of the week. The parallel clause, “in wrath” (that is, in the midst of wrath), however, shows that “in the midst of the years” means “in the years of our present exile and calamity.”
_ _ make known — Made it (Thy work) known by experimental proof; show in very deed, that this is Thy work. |
Habakkuk 3:2
Thy speech — In answer to the inquiry made Habakkuk 1:13-14. Was afraid — Trembled at what thou speakest. In the midst of the years — Even before the seventy years are expired. Make known — Thy truth, wisdom, power, and compassion. |
Habakkuk 3:2
(b) O LORD, I have heard thy speech, [and] was afraid: O LORD, revive thy (c) work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.
(b) Thus the people were afraid when they heard God's threatenings, and prayed.
(c) That is, the state of your Church which is now ready to perish, before it comes to half a perfect age, which would be under Christ. |

Yet they were not afraid, nor rent their garments, [neither] the king, nor any of his servants that heard all these words.
