Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(48) Then the heaven and the earth . . .--The prophet, following in the track of Isaiah (Isaiah 44:23), thinks of the whole creation as rejoicing in the righteous judgment of Jehovah on the guilty city, and in the liberation of His people. They sing, as it were, their Te Deum over the fall of Babylon under the attack of the Medo-Persian armies "from the North."
