The chariots shall rage in the streets, they shall justle one against another in the broad ways: they shall seem like torches, they shall run like the lightnings.

The chariots shall rage in the streets - shall be driven in furious haste (, "Come up, ye horses, and rage, ye chariots").

They shall justle one against another - run to and fro (Maurer). They shall justle one against another - run to and fro (Maurer).

In the broad ways - (, "in the street of the gate of the city"). Large open spaces in the suburbs of Nineveh.

They shall seem like torches - literally, 'their (feminine in Hebrew) appearance' (is) - namely, the appearance of the broad places-is like that of torches, through the numbers of chariots in them flashing in the sun (margin, , 'open places').

They shall run like the lightnings - with rapid violence (, "As the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be;" ).
