Scripture focus

Therefore prophesy thou against them all these words, and say unto them, The LORD shall roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he shall mightily roar upon his habitation; he shall give a shout, as they that tread [the grapes], against all the inhabitants of the earth.

Commentary on Jeremiah 25:30

Theological / Devotional

Shall roar. Verses 30-33 summarize, by dramatic figure, the message of ch. 25. Earlier the prophet had noted the judgments to fall upon Judah and upon all the nations round about her (v. 9), and finally upon Babylon (v. 12). Now, in summary, God is represented as roaring forth from His habitation to punish all nations.

These words will meet another fulfillment in the closing conflict of the nations immediately preceding the second coming of Christ (see GC 656, 657; PP 340).

Upon his habitation. Literally, “against his pasture ground” (see Joel 3:16; Amos 1:2).

Shout. Compare 1 Thess 4:16.
