Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerses 22-30. - The enemy described; the terror consequent on his arrival; a rumored declaration of the moral cause of the judgment. Verse 22. - From the north country (so Jeremiah 1:14 (see note); 4:6). Shall be raised; rather, shall be aroused. The sides of the earth; rather, "the recesses (i.e. furthest parts) of the earth" (so Jeremiah 35:32; Isaiah 14:13).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(22) From the north country . . .--The words point, as in Jeremiah 1:13-15, to the Chaldaean, perhaps, also, to the Scythian, invasion. So the "north quarters" are used in Ezekiel 38:6; Ezekiel 38:15; Ezekiel 39:2 of the home of Gog as the representative of the Scythian tribes.Shall be raised.--Literally, shall be roused, or awakened.The sides of the earth.--sc., its ends, or far-off regions.
