Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Isaiah 34:4

_ _ (Psalms 102:26; Joel 2:31; Joel 3:15; Matthew 24:29).

_ _ dissolved — (2 Peter 3:10-12). Violent convulsions of nature are in Scripture made the images of great changes in the human world (Isaiah 24:19-21), and shall literally accompany them at the winding up of the present dispensation.

_ _ scroll — Books were in those days sheets of parchment rolled together (Revelation 6:14).

_ _ fall down — The stars shall fall when the heavens in which they are fixed pass away.

_ _ fig tree — (Revelation 6:13).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Isaiah 34:1-8.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Isaiah 34:4

Dissolved — The sun, moon, and stars. So great shall be the confusion and consternation of mankind, as if all the frame of the creation were broken into pieces. It is usual for prophetic writers, both in the Old and New Testament, to represent great and general calamities, in such words and phrases, as properly agree to the day of judgment; as on the contrary, the glorious deliverances of God's people, in such expressions, as properly agree to the resurrection from the dead.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Isaiah 34:4

And all the host of heaven (c) shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll: and all their hosts shall fall down, as the leaf falleth from the vine, and as a falling [fig] from the fig tree.

(c) He speaks this in respect to man's judgment, who in great fear and horrible troubles, think that heaven and earth perishes.
