Isaiah24:21
21 And it shall come to pass in that day , that the LORD shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high , and the kings of the earth upon the earth.
Either when God shall punish the Apostatical Jews; or, about or after that time; or, in a time known to God: for this Phrase is oft used indefinitely, and without any respect to the time designed in the foregoing passages.
The proud and potent Enemies of God, and of his People, who possess the High-places of the Earth.
Either, 1. the great Monarchs of the World, who now scorn and trample upon God's People; or, 2. the Princes and Rulers▪ of Israel or Iudah: for the Name of king is frequently▪ given in Scripture unto mean and inferiour Rulers, as Iudg. 1. 7. 1 Kings 20. 1, 12. Psal. 119. 46. and elsewhere.
