The Pulpit Commentary on Isaiah 30:27

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public domain

The Name of the Lord cometh from far. "The Name of Jehovah" is scarcely distinguishable from Jehovah himself. Jehovah, who has long hid himself, and seemed to keep himself remote from worldly affairs, now is about to manifest his glory, and interpose in the doings of men in a wonderful way.

Burning with his anger; rather, his anger burneth (comp. Isaiah 42:25). And the burden thereof is heavy; "and heavy is its grievousness." His tongue as a devouring fire (comp. Exodus 24:17; Deuteronomy 9:3; Isaiah 9:19; Isaiah 10:17; Isaiah 29:6; Isaiah 33:14).
