All nations are summoned to hear their doom. Yahweh is infuriated against them, He has pronounced the ban (pp. 99, 114, Deuteronomy 2:34 *, Joshua 6:17 *) upon them. The foul odour of their exposed and putrefying corpses shall fill the air, the mountains be dissolved with their blood. The sky shall be rolled up like a scroll, and the stars drop off it (Revelation 6:13 f.) like a fading leaf from the vine or fig-tree.

Isaiah 34:4. host of heaven: read hills; the line is parallel to the last clause of Isaiah 34:3.
